When you first visit San Clemente most people are drawn to the downtown area of San Clemente.

Here you will find a lot of smaller single level homes and condo buildings mixed in with many multi-unit dwellings.

Streets like "Avenida Granada" are home to 4 large condo complex's that overlook the pier and ocean. Make sure to take a look at this street if you are looking for an ocean view condo for sale. Just on the south side of the pier you will find another great condo building called "Driftwood Bluffs" and "Vista Pacifica Villas."
