Can I post a departure that's later today?

Yes. Post it as soon as you know you have seats. It lists right away and expires when the boat leaves.

What does the $10 OSIDE Card include?

Your own page on osideca.com with directions, hours, phone and a Share button, a printable QR window sticker and table tent, and 60 days of unlimited live posts by text or email. After 60 days you keep the free Card or choose Local ($19/mo) or Live ($49/mo). Nothing ever auto-charges.

Can I pay to rank higher on OSIDE?

No. Nobody can buy a ranking. Your live posts appear when they genuinely fit what someone nearby is looking for, and anything paid is always labeled.

Do I need an app or a login?

No. You text what's open to (760) 795-9845 (or email it) and OSIDE turns it into a live post that expires on its own when it stops being true.

For Oceanside harbor tours & charters

An unsold seat is gone the moment the boat leaves.

Whale watching, sportfishing, sunset cruises and boat rentals all have the same problem: seats that expire at departure. Text OSIDE "4 seats left on the 1 PM whale watch" and it reaches people around the harbor and downtown who are deciding what to do next.

Inventory with a deadline

Every departure is a hard cutoff. The hour before it is your most valuable selling window.

Visitors decide on the day

People walking Harbor Village or the pier are choosing activities right now, not booking a week out.

Weather changes plans

When a front clears and the ocean lays down, a quick post catches everyone who just changed their mind.

How it works

Text it. It goes live. It expires on its own.

Text (760) 795-9845 from your phone. OSIDE sets the start and end time, confirms by text, shows it on your Card, the live map and in Ask OSIDE recommendations, then sends you the results.

“4 seats left on the 1pm whale watch”
“Twilight fishing trip tonight, 6 spots open”
“Electric boats free until 2 at the harbor”
“Sunset cruise at 6: last 5 seats”
