San Clemente Assisted Living

The area where San Clemente now sits was once inhabited by Juaneno Indians and Spaniards. Today the coastal community is known for its mild climate, Spanish colonial architecture and surfing.

San Clemente is a top surfing destination due to the swells that occur all year-long and has been referred to as the surfing media capital of the world due to the three prominent surfing magazines that are headquartered there.

The average temperature of 70 degrees, with a low of 64 degrees in the winter, makes this spot ideal for those interested in assisted living in San Clemente.
