10 Tips to Seaside Safely
Updated December 7, 2020
At Ventura Harbor Village our visitors health, safety, and well being remains our top priority. As an outdoor/open air attraction, we are grateful to be able to offer our community a public space to spend time and enjoy seaside amenities from a safe distance. Please be sure to wear a mask and see below for ideas on how to Seaside Safely during your next visit to Ventura Harbor:
There’s nothing better than the smell of salty sea-air followed by a bite of fresh fish and chips while overlooking the boats in the marina. Ventura Harbor has several restaurants with takeout and pick up options available per Ventura County allowance. There are many places to enjoy your harbor favorites: safe at home, on an electric boat rental, one of three beautiful Ventura Harbor beaches, or picnic style at the Seaside Takeout Zone (a big grass lawn along the waterfront) in Ventura Harbor Village.
If there’s one upside to all of this, it’s getting to shop without crowds! Limited in-store capacities mean you basically have the place to yourself! The prime times to shop solo in the Village are usually weekdays before 3pm. Please always wear a face covering and be mindful of the time you spend inside if others are waiting. If you’re not comfortable with in-store shopping, many retailers have online shops that will ship right to you as well!
The sea is a healing place and it will likely bring you a sense of calm. Make time to revel in the waves, take a deep breath of ocean air, soak up plenty of Vitamin D and Vitamin Sea, all while kindly keeping space between your group and fellow beach goers.
Clear your mind by taking a stroll through Ventura Harbor Village. Walk up and down the scenic seaside promenade to watch boats sail by, even bring your dog with you for some time in the sunshine. Please be conscientious of those around you, keeping a safe distance at all times.

When on the water, the only things around you are the sparkling harbor sea, boats cruising by, and the occasional sea lion. Travel through Ventura Harbor by paddle board, kayak, or electric boat and sightsee in solitude with Ventura Boat Rentals. Diving, parasailing, whale watching, sport fishing, and much more is available at Ventura Harbor Village as well!

One of the best things you can do to keep your family healthy, is keep them nourished with nutrient rich, nourishing food. Before you head home, be sure to stop by one of four fresh fish markets in Ventura Harbor Village for locally sourced catch to prepare at home!
Exercise is key to a well rounded approach to health. Why not make it fun with some yoga on the water or a paddle board fitness class? There are a variety of exercise classes on the water in Ventura Harbor with no experience necessary (beginners welcome!)
