Harbors Cove Beach

Ventura Harbor Village, Spinnaker Drive

Safest beach for families with small children. The harbor jetties create mild waves in this small bay. With the harbor village right across the roadway, this is a fun area to spend the day.

Facilities include bathrooms and outdoor shower. There is also a life guard on hand during the weekend end and summer months.

The jetty rocks are fun to explore and sometimes you can see octopus hiding in their shadows. But take caution! The rocks are slippery when wet so children should not go unattended.

Getting There: From North U.S. 101, exit Victoria Ave. Turn left off the freeway and right at Olivas Park Drive and follow into Ventura Harbor Village, which will put you onto Spinnaker Dr. The beach is near the end of the road on the left, across from the Channel Islands Visitor Center. From the South U.S. 101, exit Victoria, turn right. Turn right at Olivas Park Drive and follow directions above.
