Live near the ocean and Port Hueneme for less money

It’s hard to imagine a Southern California neighborhood near the oceanfront that doesn’t cost millions, but it’s still possible in Bartolo Square South. “The neighborhood is drawing more people because it’s still one of the most affordable in Oxnard,” says Joe Lucia, Realtor for nine years in Oxnard with RE/MAX Gold Coast. Folks aren’t just moving here because it’s affordable, it also has a prime location in Oxnard. “It has a great central location, with proximity to the navy base and the oceanfront,” says Lucia. Sitting at the northeast corner of Port Hueneme Naval Base, the neighborhood offers short weekday commutes and easy days of surfing at the beach on the weekend.

Morning surf at Silver Strand Beach

Surfing is the main pastime in Oxnard, and surfers in the neighborhood are three miles from three different beaches. The most popular boarding destination is Silver Strand Beach, at the peninsula's tip, where the waves converge to form the most shreddable barrels and breaks. Locals looking for calmer beach days drive to Port Hueneme Beach or Oxnard Beach. Oxnard Beach is the busiest of these options, with a selection of beachfront restaurants and large marinas for boaters to keep their vessel. Residents can also walk down West Kamala Street to play basketball and baseball or climb on the playground at Rudolph Beck Memorial Park.

The Salsa Festival and concerts by the sea

The festival revolves around everything salsa, the music, the dance and the food. Another go-to summer event is the Concerts by the Sea Summer Concert Series. Locals gather on the lawn of Harbor View Park in Channel Islands Harbor to listen to a worldly line-up of artists while breathing in the fresh, salt air.
