Review & FAQ:
Silver Strand Beach is considered the best surfing beach in Oxnard. This mile-long sandy beach is located between the Channel Islands Harbor and Port Hueneme and has restrooms, showers, lifeguards during the summer, and, at the north end, a scenic viewing platform at the entrance to the Channel Islands Harbor.
The platform is a spot many visitors use to try to catch sight of the local marine life, including dolphins and harbor seals. It is one of the few beaches in Oxnard where dogs are allowed. A great swimming beach, Silver Strand is also popular for snorkeling and fishing and has facilities for camping and RVs.
