Kupa'a Mau Outrigger Canoe Club has found a home for our canoes and our paddlers at Del Mar Beach, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton.

Del Mar Beach is located at the southern end of Camp Pendleton and offers miles of magnificent surf.  One of North County San Diego's best kept secrets, Del Mar Beach is one of Southern California's most exclusive surf breaks.  A breakwater pushes almost a mile into the Pacific, and rolls in with authority.  The beach features a boat basin, restrooms/hot showers, barbecue pits and is clean, quiet and relaxing.

Del Mar Beach is open to the military, their dependents, retirees, and their guests.  Access to the base is available for Kupa'a Mau OCC paddlers through the front gate of Camp Pendleton (there are several other gates for entry into Camp Pendleton, but you can only get a temporary pass at the main gate).  For complete directions and a map to the site, please see the attachment below.  Suggestions of what to bring to practice can be found on the Training section of our website at http://kmocc.org/training.htm.  For questions, please contact John Preston.
