in Southern California so is summer for that matter. Surfers wait for a swell sunrise at Seaside Park in Ventura. The park is located across the street from the Ventura County Fairgrounds which hosts a weekly Flea Market on Sunday as well as many other special events. Both are located a few blocks from old downtown where you'll find plenty of antique and other shops, eateries, and Mission San Buenaventura.

Ventura isn't the only beach to go to of course. Basically any beach will do. A couple of our favorites (because there is more than just the beach) are:
Paradise Cove in Malibu - this is a particularly beautiful private beach that has many amenities including a cafe. It is so wildly popular on summer weekends that it causes major traffic problems on PCH. However, a fine day in the winter is a great time to go there.
Venice Beach - always fun to go for the boardwalk scene. As the sun sets try the rooftop lounge at the Hotel Erwin - enjoy poke tacos, your favorite beverage, a comfy couch, and a spinning DJ with your view of the setting sun.
Newport Beach - a great place to get out on the water. We went on a whale watching cruise there last summer and the trip did not disappoint.
