Ocean Beach is the place in So Cal with beaches and bud. Schools? I've heard pretty good things about the schools in Temecula and Chino Valley. I think a forum dedicated to schools and education might offer better advice though. Your income may be relevant too, since California real estate is spendy, and some areas are pricier than others.

Good Luck!
