Surfers Point Beach at Seaside Park in Ventura, California is located at the Ventura River mouth. A lagoon forms where the river backs up behind the beach which makes this a great birding location.
The point faces south so waves coming from the west curl around it making right hand waves that roll in consistently. Surfers will start at various spots and ride these waves toward the Ventura City Pier.
Kiteboarders and windsurfers put on a show in the area just west of the point when the wind is up. West of the point is Emma Wood State Beach.
East of the point is Seaside Park and the Promenade, a paved pathway that connects Surfers Point to the pier. The Omer Rains Bike Trail continues from the Promenade and goes in both directions along the shore. Between the point and the pier the beach has eroded away so if the tide is up you won’t find sand there.
