    Stunningly beautiful and pristine slice of native California coastal land. Great place to just lose yourself for a few hours (or days, apparently, as I saw a few tents). Sandy beaches, dunes with driftwood and flowering plants, the occasional train coming by, and also a river mouth. Lots of bird life around too. This is just a taste of some of Central and Northern California's wild and wonderful coastline, but it is also easily accessible if you live in the area. I'm not sure of the exact laws here, but I did build a driftwood fire one night and no one bothered me about it...just sublime.

    To those that complain about the homeless there, I didn't see any real trash, so it must have been cleaned up. I did see a few tents and a few grungy people who kept a very low profile and didn't bother me in the least. I mean, Ventura is a town full of grungy people so it goes with the territory, but they aren't dangerous or rude...at all. I know the area, it is not a concern and again, I saw very little garbage that hadn't just washed up in the tide. There are no beaches in the world that don't have garbage on them these days, even in the South Pacific, by the way.

    Entering through Emma Wood SB, I followed the bike path in and went down under a bridge where it was kind of swampy and continued on a dirt path out onto the beach. I was able to get my bike and kid trailer all the way to the site of the beach. I locked them together when we went to the water since there are many thieves in the area and it's not 100% safe area. It was overcast but not too cold. The weather is deceitful on the coast. It was a beautiful day. We got there at low tide. The tide pools we covered in seaweed and didn't appear to have any animals or sea life in them. We did watch a crane and the seagulls for awhile and played in the waves as the tide came back in. We saw a helicopter fly over. There are always neat planes and such flying by rather low so you can get a good look. My 5yo. loves it. It is a special place to explore and very enjoyable.
