Historic Tour of San Clemente for two in a classic Woodie: Career journalist Fred Swegles shares little-known secrets of our coastal town during a one hour tour, with a town favorite, local car vintage collector George Huggins, at the wheel.

Meet Fred and George at the base of the Pier for a gelato at Catarina's and a brief history of our beloved San Clemente Pier. From there, climb aboard a world-class Woodie for a tour of old San Clemente. Learn about Trestles surfing, the Western White House, and the city's secret aqueduct. Proceed to North Beach where the glamour and romance of the 1930's comes alive. Plenty of Photo Opps and a rare chance to get the scoop from Fred Swegles, a native San Clementean who has covered local events since 1970 for the Sun Post News, Orange County Register, and San Clemente Times.

Timing is flexible, but we recommend October...PierPride month.
