The PAOPAO Outrigger Race is a 20-Mile, 9-Man Outrigger race hosted by Oceanside Outrigger Canoe Club every August. A Southern California Outrigger Racing Association (SCORA) race, PAOPAO Outrigger Race begins from just outside the mouth of Oceanside Harbor. The course offers a variety of conditions for crews including “uphill”, into the swell and wind, and finishing with a long down wind leg offering surfing with the swell and wind wave.
