Malnourished San Clemente beaches will receive sand from the City of Oceanside beginning in November, after the Army Corps of Engineers and San Clemente city officials approved in May a 50-year sand replenishment project.

Sand—2,500 tons of it—will be relocated from the ocean floor west of the Oceanside Harbor to replenish a 3,400-foot stretch of San Clemente beaches between Linda Lane and T Street, according to a City of San Clemente 2022 staff report.
