The San Clemente Pier Conservancy is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the historic San Clemente Pier for future generations. For nearly a decade, the organization was known as PierPride, building a legacy of community-driven impact and demonstrating what can be accomplished when a town puts its heart into protecting a beloved landmark.
The recent transition to San Clemente Pier Conservancy represents more than a simple rebrand — it reflects an expanded vision and a renewed sense of purpose. The organization remains committed to ensuring the Pier continues to serve as a place of cherished memories for generations to come, building on the deep community affection that PierPride cultivated over the years.
Moving forward, San Clemente Pier Conservancy will continue to prioritize stewardship, environmental responsibility, and the long-term care of this cultural and historical treasure. As the Pier approaches its 100th birthday celebration in 2028, the organization invites the community to share in the excitement and become part of shaping the Pier’s future.
Through this renewed commitment, San Clemente Pier Conservancy carries forward a mission rooted in preservation, pride, and a lasting connection between the community and one of San Clemente’s most iconic landmarks.
