Emma Wood State Beach Campground — Virtual Tour

Emma Wood State Beach Campground in Ventura California offers primitive camping for fully self-contained vehicles ONLY. Tents are not permitted. No water, restrooms, electricity, fire rings, phones or dump station are available. There are 90 campsites, which are not level and may contain a mixture of asphalt, dirt, cobble and ocean debris. Maximum vehicle length is 40 feet, due to small turnaround areas. The campground is built on the remnants of the old road and is primarily a location driven park; put this campground anywhere else and no one would go! There are better choices in the area but if they are all full then this can be a fall-back. Note there are two Emma Wood camping areas. This one along the old road and beach. A second one next to Ventura RV Resort that is closed as of this report but may become available again for group usage. The popular coastal bike trail to Ventura passes right by the entrance. In addition the rail line passes through the park. The address is incorrect for mapping. Use the GPS coordinates.
