  • Ada W★★★★

    Ventura Harbor Village is such a fun waterfront destination that’s perfect for spending a few relaxing hours or even an entire afternoon. The village offers a great variety of restaurants, dessert shops, boutique clothing stores, hat shops, and souvenir stores, so there’s something for everyone. If you’re looking for a little adventure, you can also rent boats, kayaks, or paddle boards to explore the harbor. I even spotted a scuba diving shop, making it a great place for water sports enthusiasts. If you’re not into activities, simply strolling along the harbor is just as enjoyable. The ocean breeze, colorful boats, and peaceful atmosphere make it a wonderful place to unwind and take in the beautiful views. Parking is convenient with several large lots throughout the village. Monday through Thursday (excluding major holidays), parking is free. On Fridays, weekends, and major holidays from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, parking is $1 per hour. The first hour is free if you register your license plate, parking is charged for up to four hours, and the daily maximum is $10. That makes it easy and affordable to spend the day exploring. Whether you’re coming for a meal, dessert, shopping, or just a relaxing walk by the water, Ventura Harbor Village is definitely worth a visit.

    Excellent sport for spending your day! I like stores and little shops there with handmade jewelry, and seafood restaurants. You can walk to the Channel Islands Park visitor's center and enjoy a little aquarium and gift shop. At the top of the building there's an awesome spot to observe area - marina, ocean shore and beaches. I want to come back. 💕
