Ventura Harbor tops the list of magical, coastal destinations you’ll want to visit with your loved ones this holiday season! Sparkling seaside lights and decor will be on display in the Village until the New Year.
There is no cost to stroll on foot to experience the beauty and wonder of the outdoor shopping center in the fresh ocean air. Bundle up and don’t forget your holiday shopping list & a mask. There are select areas of the Village where guests can view lights from the safety and comfort of their vehicle as well.
There are colorful daytime photo opportunities on the waterfront as well as a nighttime wonderland of lights (including the popular SEAson’s Greetings sign). Celebrate in true California style and stroll the beautiful decor by the sea. Not only are the views stunning, but also there is an array of safe activities and seasonal experiences the whole family will enjoy.
Dine along the waterfront on scenic covered patios and enjoy quality cuisine offerings from around the world. Meander the vibrant Ventura Harbor Village with unique shops and find one-of-a-kind art from Ventura’s local creatives. The already picturesque harbor will shine even brighter with its’ display of ocean-inspired holiday decorations decking the halls from Thanksgiving to New Year’s. See sparkling blue, aqua, and green beachy hues, spiraling sea pearls, whimsical colorful trees, bountiful wreaths, and other dazzling décor that bounces off the marina waters. After a fresh seafood dinner or a warm cup of handcrafted clam chowder, dusk is the prime time to stroll through Ventura Harbor Village’s twinkling courtyards.
Spoil yourself with sweet treats, like chocolates, baked goods, and pastries – all hand-made from scratch daily! When the sugar rush hits, zoom around the Village to take care of shopping for everyone on your gift list. Once you step foot in Ventura Harbor Village, the illuminated outdoor attraction will bring so much joy that you will not want to leave. The Four Points by Sheraton Ventura Harbor Resort and Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Ventura Harbor are steps away from the water.
Large public holiday events, which have been a tradition at Ventura Harbor, will return in 2021 such as the Parade of Lights and the Winter Wonderland & Holiday Marketplace due to Covid-19 and will not be held this year but there are lots of ways to celebrate the season by the sea.
