The Idealest Ventura Beaches

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

A holiday at beach is always interesting, especially for Ventura beaches that offer great swimming and surfing and even great camping. To discover the wonders of a holiday at Ventura beaches, visit the idealest beaches below.

Rincon Parkway

Just north of Ventura. It’s primitive RVing, with only a few porta-potties here and there. But visitors get surfing, beach bonfires and miles of the blue Pacific, just steps from their RV door. Rincon parkway doesn’t take reservations. But with $25 per night, and with the fancier (and privately run) Ventura RV Park about a mile south, it’s hard to go wrong. Other options nearby include Hobson and Faria Beach County Parks just north of Rincon Parkway.

McGrath State Beach

For group or family tent camping and RVers, McGrath is popular for good reason. This state beach sits a healthy walk back from the ocean behind grass-covered dunes, with shady spots for camping. A group camping area fringes a meadow for baseball games and other group activities. McGrath also has some of the nicest restroom facilities of any beach campground, a fact that becomes much-appreciated after a few days of camping.

McGrath’s campground sits back from the beach for good reason. The park lies just south of the Santa Clara River estuary. That proximity also makes it a sanctuary for marine birds, so nature trails ring the park for prime bird-watching opportunities. But be sure to respect the fencing and signs to keep away from nesting areas: McGrath is a protected habitat for two endangered species: the California least tern and the snowy plover.

A trip to Hancock Park will steer you to the La Brea Tar Pits, which boasts the greatest number of prehistoric fossils excavated in the world.
