“We come here with friends, set up a shared site and feel like we have our own little slice of Heaven all to ourselves. The beach is clean and almost completely empty of people. The campground has been really quiet, probably because its mid week. Wishing for more sun this trip, but still any day at the edge of the Ocean is a good one, right???”

“Great place for its closeness to the ocean. You can no longer have fires in the rocks. Bring a portable pit. Some people have fires because the don't read the rules.”

“Took my dog Tara for her 1st visit to the beach. This place is easy to get to right off the 101, easy parking, friendly people camped out and easy access to the beach and it is a very nice place to just sit and watch the surfers too. There is a small cafe snack place, public wash rooms and place to sit down and eat while watching the surf.”

“Came in late and stayed in overflow on the back side of the lake. The staff and rangers where super friendly and helpful. The other guests where friendly quiet and the evening was cool with a nice breeze. Not loud at all. Loved hearing the sounds of nature while we settled down for the night. We RV camp so no need to use the facilities but there are flushing toilets water facet near every sight.”

“West park is a community center with a gymnasium, sports fields, 2 playgrounds, nice cement path, tetherball poles and has a large cement play area too. It's next to Sheridan Way elementary and the skate park. The bike trail runs right behind it and there is access. There is nice large grass area and a picnic bench. The playgrounds have soft padding underneath. One side has toddler swings and the other side has big kid swings.”

“We stayed a week here and it was not as bad as everyone makes it seem it’s really nice and very clean people are friendly and helpful staff and always doing events for kids and families... yes it’s by the freeway but it’s not bad because we played music and didn’t hear much the only thing that we didn’t like was there was a small restroom and shower there need to be more for the amount of people that are there but other then that it’s a very beautiful place (if your going to the beach exit and go left and follow the bike trail it’s faster and a nicer spot)”

“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.”

“Small part damaged and goes down to 1 lane, otherwise in good condition. Of course views are lovely. Fairly flat work a few should steepish inclines.”

“Beautiful history within the community center. Now it is only used for quienceneras on the weekends. Overall nice scenic area and a beautiful place for the youngsters!”

“I always enjoy the feeling I get walking and exploring the shore in this area. And there are some expert surfers to watch, and lots of stuff. This is truly about the most laidback place in California (i mean, that still has people of course...lol) ...and the people are very friendly and kind and real too. None of that LA attitude and plasticity here, believe me. You can talk to anyone. Or just do your own thing. If you go just north of where the board surfers go, there is also some excellent body surfing waves, but the water is usually pretty cold. Ventura is a great place to spend the day, and possibly longer, no question about it.”

“What a wonderful place for our community! A path for walking/running. Plenty of fun equipment for kids, places to sit. I a very impressed. We need more places like this.”
Address: Father Serra Cross, Ventura, CA 93001, USA
“Ventura has really taken some effort beautifying the area with new plants and flowers so I hope visitors respect that and keep the area clean. I've visited many many times and I've seen trash and debris quite a few times, especially after functions. The views are amazing, parking is decent and there are plenty of nooks to explore in the surrounding areas.”

“The one place in Ventura I miss the most, since I've moved. The most beautiful time of day is at dusk, watching the sun set and the lights come up in the city.”
Address: 567 South Poli St, Ventura, CA 93001, USA
“Place was awesome before the fire. Well manicured and some of the features (benches, etc) are cool. I still go sometimes on the free days but I'm not sure I'll ever wrap my head and paying to walk in the hills I grew up walking around in. Good views can also be had at arroyo Verde (park outside and walk in) and the cross for free.”

“I love smelling the ocean air around every corner. I just wish we could start hiking again.”
Address: 398 Ferro Dr, Ventura, CA 93001, USA
“I think it’s a shame that many parts of the park or no longer open the vehicle traffic some roads have remained closed since the fire other areas have been locked up and change that were once great areas to park and enjoy the views maybe have lunch or a picnic but ever since the creation of the botanical gardens which is a beautiful addition to the hillside they have slowly and systematically been limiting access which is unfortunate because of the beauty of the surrounding hilltop open space should be opened up more not less and it said that the same sad pathetic scapegoats of Supposedly “drug use “ and “illegal activities “with little on specifics it seems that they care not about having open recreational space available to all”
Address: Shoreline Dr, Ventura, CA 93001, USA
“Relaxing and authentic surfer hangout. There is a boardwalk and bike path along the beach. Many benches to sit and enjoy the breeze and sounds of the surf breaking on the shore. Informal art work found in many spots - people just do stuff like chalk art, leave messages, pile rocks into sculptures. Good place to watch surfers catching waves, or catch some yourself if you're into that. Parking: the lot I parked in - right off the beach - was small and free.”

“It's a beautiful place to spend time with loved ones and enjoy each other's company”
Address: 37 Casitas Vista Rd, Ventura, CA 93001, USA
“Great spot. Everyone was respectful of each other's space. Nice people having a good time with their kids. Fun for catching frogs or just wading in the water. I really hope it doesnt get destroyed over the summer with trash! Take away what you bring!”
Address: Ventura, CA 93001, USA
“Great little preserve ran by the Ventura Land Trust (VLT). Entrance is off the bike path that follows Hwy 33 towards Ventura. Park under the 33 Hwy and Casitas Vista Road. Hide any valuables out of sight in your car so nobody walking around gets any ideas. Walk towards the park and then down the bike path a few minutes and you'll see the trailhead sign on your right. The entire trail(s) is only a mile or so but you'll find the river back there. According to the VLT you can enter the river and explore just be safe and respectful of the nature there. There can occasionally be vagrants near the area so I'd always go with a buddy. Have fun!”
