Oxnard, California

 Are you on your way to San Francisco from Los Angeles by bus yet you don’t want to spend hours staring at the bus window doing absolutely nothing? Worry no more for there is a city in Ventura County that could save you! Welcome to the City of Oxnard – the land of endless strawberry fields and unspoiled beaches.

Let’s start with some Oxnard Facts. Oxnard, California is located about 60 miles northwest of Los Angeles along the California coast and is situated on the Oxnard Plain where some of the best strawberries in the world are grown. Add to this the fact that Oxnard enjoys a dry subtropical climate with warm winters and cool summers and you get not just the perfect strawberry sundae for dessert but also the perfect vacation getaway!

The City of Oxnard used to be inhabited by the Chumash Native Americans many years before it was conquered by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo for Spain in 1542. When California became a state in 1850, Californio settlers lost their influence and began ranching as American farmers began tilling the soil and planting lime and barley. Henry T. Oxnard and his three brothers, who used to own a successful sugar beet factory in Chino, California decided to build a $2 million sugar beet processing plant on the plain inland from Port Hueneme (pronounced as “why-nee-mee” which means “resting place” in Chumash). Oxnard planned to name the area Zachari which is the Greek word for sugar but it was later on named after him.

You can always refer to Oxnard Travel Guide on how to get to Oxnard. By Air, The Oxnard Airport (OXR) is a regional airport which serves United Express flights from Los Angeles and is situated at a comfortable proximity to most beaches and major attractions in the Oxnard area. It flies to Oxnard about three times a day for $559. SkyWest Airlines (which operates United Express) however, announced in early 2010 that it would cease flying to Oxnard by June, 2010.

But if you prefer land transportation, Ventura Shuttle operates shuttles services to Oxnard from the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) seven times a day for at least $35. Most buses and trains such as Amtrak, Greyhound, Union Pacific and Metrolink also stop by Oxnard making it Southern California’s major transportation hub.

Accommodation - Ask any Oxnard City Guide about places good places to stay while in Oxnard and more often than not they would recommend familiar hotels with huge price tags. However if you are in Oxnard on a tight budget, you could always check out the Oxnard Yellow Pages or the Oxnard Directory Listing to find out more about potential Oxford accommodations .

Oxnard is home to some of the most beautiful yet not so crowded beaches in California since it does not get as much attention as other coastal cities in California do. Beaches in Oxnard are quite large and the sand is particularly softer as compared to other beaches. Though Oxnard beaches have very few rocks, they are known to have very dangerous rip currents which beach bums should watch out for.
Oxnard has a myriad of museums in its enclave that would make art enthusiasts squeal with glee. For one, there is the Carnegie Art Museum which features eclectic artworks made by 20th century California artists such as Arthur Beaumont, Colin Campbell Cooper, Leo Politi, and Millard Sheets. Car lovers would also fall in love with Oxnard’s Murphy Auto Museum which features a collection of over 50 cars ranging from antique cars to 1970’s vintage automobiles.

Whether you’re on a holiday family vacation, a random backpacker or a business traveler, Oxnard has got what it takes to please you! So come to Oxnard and see real beauty just miles from the metropolis.
