Solimar Beach

Solimar Beach is next to the small seaside community of Solimar Beach Colony in Ventura, CA. This is a gated housing development along Pacific Coast Highway (Hwy 1) about four miles north of downtown. The beach right in front of the homes has eroded away so there isn’t much sand except at low tides. South of the last home is a sandy spot that surfers will drive here to ride. The beach south of here is part of Emma Woods State Beach and it is very narrow. This state park has a linear RV campground above the sand about a mile away. There are no facilities at Solimar Beach, but you get free parking and enough sand to make it worth checking out. From Ventura drive Highway 101 north to exit 72 then drive on PCH to the parking spaces just before the homes.
