Ventura Pier, Promenade and Crowne Plaza Area

Visit Ventura's own walking itinerary for the pier and promenade. Good orientation for anyone who has not stood on this stretch of sand yet.

The beach on either side of the pier: parking, access points and what the sand is actually like day to day.

The paved oceanfront path linking the pier to Surfers Point. This is the walk that sells the neighborhood.

Surfers Point at the north end of the promenade, where the wave breaks around the point.

Crowne Plaza Ventura Beach, the beachfront hotel anchoring this end of the promenade. Useful for out-of-town buyers who want to stay in the neighborhood before they commit.

What is within walking distance of the pier: over 40 restaurants and shops toward downtown.
