AGENCY SPOTLIGHT – CHANNEL ISLANDS HARBOR
The Channel Islands Harbor is located between Port Hueneme and Ventura. It was built as a recreational harbor in the 1960s and 1970s on 310 acres of land and water, with approximately 2,150 boat slips, as well as marina facilities, restaurants, sportfishing facilities, chandleries and shops.
The Harbor is owned and operated by the County of Ventura. The majority of the Harbor is operated by businesses that have been granted long-term ground leases by the Board of Supervisors.
The Harbor, in partnership with the Channel Island Maritime Museum, hosted a community painting event to create a special mural that will be on display at the Harbor throughout the summer. The art concept was designed by Elisa Torres and the team with the Oxnard Performing Arts Center Corporation facilitated the event.
If you have a chance, head on over to the Harbor to check out the mural and all that this special area of our county has to offer!
