Reviews of San Onofre Beach Campground
"We had a wonderful and relaxing time at the Camp Pendleton San Onofre Beach.... S.O.B."
"Nice experience. Wonderful to hear the ocean waves crashing on shore day and night. Fun watching the surfers. Appreciate the security people driving by frequently. Nice campsites some with just electric and water and others full hookup. Super clean restrooms scattered throughout."
"San Onofre Military Beach camping. Have been coming to this area for years. Always beautiful!!! Unfortunately, the ocean is claiming more and more. Some beach site are gone because of high tides. The Lifeguard tower is on shaky legs. I hope they can save it. Campsites need some love, but the main hall and check-in is looking good. I hope they can bring it all back to the grand showplace it really is."
"Campground has great amenities, real bathrooms with showers, lots of RV hookups, big group campsites, on the beach. Unfortunately the beach access was closed due to sand erosion, do we had to walk a ways down the road to actually access the beach. Be we had a great time and I don't know why you wouldn't have a great time also!"
"Camp here... you'll regret it. Right next the lavishing 5 freeway. You have homeless scoping out your camp site trying to see what they can come up on. And on top of that, the transit system is flying by at full speed. Nothing like sleeping by the beach by the freeway and feeling like a bum. All the lights keep you up at night. This is so much fun. 5/5 will avoid this place like the plague."
