Tips

February 24, 2022

To follow the bike route through the active Camp Pendleton Marine Corps military base an official permit is required. It must be applied for in advance to enter from the North. The permit office is in the Visitor Center at the South gate. Apply for your Department of Defense bicycle pass at the Visitors Building, Main Gate, in Oceanside. To assure the safety of US Marine Base bicyclists using Stuart Mesa Road as an alternative to the I-5 freeway shoulder must now posses a valid Department of Defense Biometric Identification Card.

Otherwise the only current connection between San Clemente and Oceanside is the I-5 freeway shoulder, open in both directions between the Las Pulgas Road on-ramp and Harbor Drive ramps in Oceanside. The I-5 freeway shoulder has been open to bicyclists between Las Pulgas and Harbor Dr. for decades. Signs will direct you through the rest areas and at the Harbor Dr. exit in Oceanside. If construction closes the I-5 shoulders, Signs will offer you a phone number to call to shuttle you and your bicycle!

If Marines close the south San Onofre St. Park gate, Caltrans should post signs with access to the I-5 shoulder from Christianitos or Basilone Rd. urbanbicycleoutfitters.com/2016-pre-registration-required-to-ride-through-camp-pendleton
