A great place to spend the day and enjoy the coast!

San Buenaventura State Beach is located in Ventura right off the 101 freeway. The beach has a pier, places to eat, picnic tables, restrooms and rental shops. Wheel Fun Rentals is a popular shop to rent from if you want to hit the bike trails. The Omer Rains Coastal Bike Trail is a path along the coastline of Ventura that is very scenic. I took a stroll around Surfers Point at Seaside Park recently to enjoy the cool breeze while doing some people watching.

The best beach! I…read moreuse to work with port Hueneme as a client and I loved every office visit because the beach was so awesome every time. Now as I visit as a (dare I say..."Tourist") I get to enjoy the beach full time. Why is this one the best you ask? Well, it stretches out for about 50 feet before the water gets deep. This makes it perfect for kids who want to play in water but can't swim. Also the parking is only $2 per hour. And it's normally extremely chill here. Never too busy or crowded. The seafood restaurant is also really great and fresh! I love it here and if I was rich I'd buy a home across the street.

There are tons of beaches one can visit, but I had a list of certain ones to check out on this visit. We stayed at the military base for lodging, so this beach was only a few minutes in close proximity. They do have paid parking, just read the signs for payment. We parked on the street for free. There is a bathroom if needed, nothing fancy. We enjoyed the beach, it was crowed at all, which was a plus. There is a wide area to reach the beach, so be prepared to walk abit. I definitely would revisit if I'm in the area.

From the strip of beautiful beachfront homes, to the cleanly combed sand, there is a lot of space at this beach. The fore shore has a wide dry beach and wet beach area. When you walk from the street to the shoreline, there is plenty of real estate to pitch a tent and claim your area for the day. The wet beach has a gradual slope, and is wide. Which allows for great runs along the wash. Public restrooms are near for the basic necessities. You also can make your way to the marina for food and drinks, as well as additional restrooms. For the grown folks, you can walk down to the Infamous Rudder Room. Regardless of where you decide to plant your flag, you'll enjoy your time at Hollywood Beach. Take a stroll and see why this place was called, Hollywood By the Sea.

Some local beaches are starting to charge, but this one still offers PLENTY of free parking. In addition, there are multiple playgrounds - including a pirate galleon from when the park was established during my childhood, a THOUSAND years ago! It doesn't have the zip line that caused me to smash my leg into the concrete side, leaving a still visible scar 1,000 years later, which is probably for the best, but a kinder/gentler playground with more modern amenities for today's active child. There is also an expansive grass area, where you will find many local pups bounding about with joy. On the grassy areas, BBQs! Also a protected, man made beach cove with an easy enter, small to no wave water entry. Lots of families prefer to set up their space on the green grass and then make their way to the beach, which is an ideal way to have your picnic sand free! A foot shower is also available to rinse the beach off before you settle back onto your blanket. Plenty of benches, tables and a bathroom that is, if I'm being completely honest, acceptable, but could use an upgrade. If you're more active, make your way to the public dock to launch your kayak, paddle board, etc. I've also seen people fishing from this dock and launching remote control boats - so cute! If you haven't brought your own board or boat, there is a rental kiosk handily available. This is also a great park to stroll through. A clear path goes from the parking lot to the tip of the Ventura Harbor entrance, known as Soter Point, where a beautiful sculpture stands.
