Wavecrest, World's Largest Woodies Classic Car Show at Moonlight Beach

 

Hundreds of classic surf culture "Woodies" will be on show this Saturday, September 23rd at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas. The "Wavecrest" event is the largest car show of its kind in the world, and this event will be the 38th annual show here in Encinitas. Since appearing in surf movies and surf music in the 1960s, these wood-paneled cars have been an integral part of surf culture around the world, especially here in Southern California.

Dan Close, President of San Diego Woodies, says "Woodies are a part of Americana, and we are looking forward to an amazing, fun-filled weekend!" The cars come in from all over North America and some travel to the Encinitas from as far as Australia.

There will be live surf and Hawaiian music as well as entertainment for the kids. They will be raffling off surfboards, skateboards, and 2 Electra Cruiser bikes. More information on the event can be found at sandiegowoodies.com.

On Sunday Morning, the Woodies will be parading up Highway 101 up to Oceanside Pier and back again. These types of events make Encinitas and the North County Coastal area a really unique and special place to live.
