Drum roll, please.

Waves crash. The rhythm builds. The ocean's beat meets the city's pulse, flowing through golden sands, bold flavors and vibrant culture. The tides set the tempo, the streets hum with energy and every sunset plays its own encore.

Welcome to Oxnard

Oxnard Is California cool, panorama-perfect, culturally authentic and vibrant beyond measure.

Between Malibu and Santa Barbara on the California Coast, Oxnard is where Southern California "cool" meets Central Coast relaxation, where Pacific Coast Highway meets Highway 101.


A beat apart.

Oxnard is one of California’s best-kept secrets, situated on the coast between Malibu and Santa Barbara. This chill beach town blends laid-back vibes with a jam-packed calendar of events and a rich cultural heritage. With 7 miles of pristine, uncrowded beaches and mild weather year-round, Oxnard’s always ready to welcome you where Pacific Coast Highway meets Highway 101. Plus, its expansive Channel Islands Harbor is just a beat apart from Channel Islands National Park, where sea caves and kelp forests add extra thrill for adventurers. This mesmerizing rhythm of moments and emotions combine to make Oxnard the city you can't get out of your head.
