I like the beaches and Pier in Oceanside, CA. I like to be out past the breakers year-round when my abilities permit.

Super Bowl Sunday Oceanside Pier Swim
The beach was quiet this afternoon when I swam at about 1 PM. The town is quiet too; everybody is getting ready for the Super Bowl Game.
The tide was very low and the current was flowing steadily southward-just like yesterday. I had a 30 minute swim in some cold water. I got used to the water after ten minutes but then got cold again at about twenty minutes. The waves were 1 to 4 feet-the bigger waves being on the south side. I got crunched hard by a wave swimming in. There were very few surfers at the beach today; I guess they were home preparing for the game.
The water was a little sloppy and choppy at the end of the pier. My swimming felt weak and slow. Probably because it is-ha ha.
Anyway, I got my swim in and felt good.
