In a nutshell
Good day trip loop from LA along the coast and back on 101
HotSpotJ Says: One of the few "safe" spots in Downtown Oxnard, Centennial Plaza features Plaza Cinemas, a 14-screen, state of the art, first run movie theatre as well as specialty restaurants Good Thai-Peru Restaurant, Capriccio and Casa Escobar, and well-known establishments including...
Unique bikes from Wheel Fun Rentals

Fishermans Wharf / Channel Islands Harbor
HotSpotJ Says: Fishermans Wharf and Channel Islands Harbor in Oxnard is an excellent place to take the family and spend a Saturday afternoon. Peppered with some great places to eat, the Ventura County Maritime Museum, and seasonal family events- you can stroll around the Wharf and enjoy...
HotSpotJ Says: When working in Oxnard and staying Camarillo, one of my favorite things to do when driving to work in the morning was to put the convertible top down and let the fresh aroma of the fields help me coffee wake me up. Sometimes this would backfire when they were applying...
HotSpotJ Says: Oxnard Beach is located off of Harbor. Open from Dawn till Dusk, park here and enjoy a picnic or a stroll down the beach- I would drive through each day and try to capture the sunset before dinner. Amenities featured at this Oxnard beach include barbeque areas, volleyball...
doctormud Says: One of the best things to do, and FREE too, is beach combing. If your out and about in the early mornings you can discover various things the great pacific ocean has churned up. From seashells to driftwood, and maybe a message in a bottle from a lost soul in the pacific....

Sal's Mexican Inn: The Best Mexican Food in Oxnard!
TravellerMel Says: I remember this place fondly, back in the days when Mr. Sal himself would stop by the table to make sure you were enjoying your meal. Mr. Sal is gone now, but his family remains true to his memory and vision. Sal's Mexican Inn always had (in my never-to-be-humble opinion)...
kimberlyfisher1 Says: Um, not much.First off all the service is totally confusing...you order entrees at the counter, but drinks and appetizers at your table. On some days, it changes. Only drinks at the table, all food ordered at the counter.The first time around tried a shrimp cocktail and a...
Cabo Seafood Grill and Cantina: Great Food at Five Points
HotSpotJ Says: Cabo is Mexican Seafood at its best. I try something new at Cabo each time I visit, and I've always been pleased. The service is amazing at Cabo, we had a company function here with 25 guests and one server took care of us all without flaw. the only bad part about Cabo is...
HotSpotJ Says: Yolandas is one of the more Americanizd Mexican restaurants as far as cuisine goes, but very good all the same. The menu is very familiar to me as this is what East Coast Mexican looks like! I had the Enchiladas and loved them, and as this is near where I worked I would stop...
El Pollo Norteno: Real Mexican awaits
HotSpotJ Says: El Pollo Norteno is not Taco Bell. Oxnard has plenty of authentic Mexican food, and this was one of my favorites. With 2 locations on either end of Oxnard Boulevard, EPN offers a simple menu with fabulous taste- I could never finish the burrito they are soooo filling- with...
BJ's Brewhouse: The only Hotpsot in Oxnard
HotSpotJ Says: BJ's is the only place I found in Oxnard that has somewhat of a normal nightlife heartbeat. I would go here to start my night off on Friday nights, and then move on to Ventura to get some decent nightlife. BJ's specialty is their Chicago-style deepdish pizzas, as well as the...
La Dolce Vita: In the heart of Oxnard
keida84 Says: What is so unique about this restaurant is its location. Right smack in downtown Oxnard in Heritage Square. Heritage Square has become a haven for historical homes that were slated for demolition. In 1985, the Oxnard Redevelopment Agency and several of Oxnard's notable...
Designated Driver: Plan it Out
HotSpotJ Says: There are NO decent nightspots, at least in my view, in the Oxnard area. Not even close in comparison with the madness in Hollywood, Santa Monica, L.A., or even Ventura or Aguora Hills. so this means you'll have to drive. Please plan ahead and designate a driver if you are...

VISIT THE FORMER LYING-IN HOSPITAL
Rich62 Says: At 838 West 5th Street in Oxnard, California, there stands a senior citizen housing complex today, called Casa Merced. However, in the early part of the 20th century it was a hospital with the strange name "Lying-In Hospital and Sanitorium." In the lobby of the present...
Rich62 Says: The former Mira Loma Flight Academy, where rookie pilots began their training, was located on West 5th Street, just south of the Oxnard Airport. Today it is low-cost housing. A circular street called MIra Loma Circle marks the location.
keida84 Says: If you like the sun, wind, sea and the smell of fresh albacore, then you would enjoy a fishing trip out of the Channel Islands Harbor.There are many trips from which to choose: half day, three-quarter day, twilight trips and one day trips out to the Channel Islands.Cost per...
