Seaward Avenue Access
About
Seaward Avenue Access is a public ocean beach in California, about 1.2 miles from San Buenaventura (Ventura). It's a simple stop with restrooms on site, no fee to use it, and a firm rule against dogs, so plan to leave pets at home. Summer and early fall bring the warmest, driest stretch. A nearby weather station records typical highs around 73 to 74°F from July through September with only a day or two of rain a month. Winters stay mild, with typical highs in the mid-60s and lows in the upper 40s. For a change from the sand, the Ventura Botanical Gardens Trail lies about 1.8 miles away, and the Barlow Canyon Trail is about 2.3 miles off. Paddlers can head to the Ventura River, roughly 8 miles from the beach.
