Residential vibe near Oxnard’s oceanfront
Halfway between the oceanfront and downtown Oxnard, Marina West offers a mix of residential charm and seaside activity, making it one of the most appealing locations in the city. "You get the convenience of a city neighborhood with the recreation and easy-going nature of a beachfront town," says Arturo Hernandez, Realtor since 2009 with RE/MAX Gold Coast. Curving streets and cul-de-sacs combined with larger homes and lawns give a suburban vibe, contrasting the city blocks of neighboring Bartolo Square. “People love how much recreation is nearby, surfing is especially big here,” says Hernandez. From anywhere in the community, residents are within walking distance of their boat and waterfront dining at Seabridge Marina or Channel Islands Harbor. Authentic Southern California eateries in downtown Oxnard are also a short drive in the other direction. With Route 101 just north of the neighborhood, commuters can make their daily drive with time to spare for sunset surfing.
