Emma Wood - North Beach Day Use area is closed due to a construction project beginning on 8/25/25. Emma Wood North Beach will remain closed until the construction projects are completed.
Moderate water temperatures make this Ventura shoreline good for swimming, surfing and fishing. Campsites face the ocean, with a bike path running along the back of the beach.
