Moving to Camp Pendleton, CA?

Camp Pendleton is the Marine Corps’ largest West Coast expeditionary training base — 125,000 acres of rugged coastline, rolling hills, and some of the best weather in America. Home to I MEF, the 1st Marine Division, and tens of thousands of Marines, Sailors, and their families, it’s more than just a base — it’s a community with its own beaches, schools, and small-town pride.

Whether you’re reporting for your first duty station, PCSing with a family, or returning from deployment, Camp Pendleton offers an unmatched mix of mission focus and SoCal lifestyle. Surf Del Mar Beach on liberty, hike the Santa Margarita River Trail, or take the kids to the base splash park — all while living minutes from Oceanside Pier and LEGOLAND.
