About C Street

C Street, officially Surfers' Point in Ventura, is one of California's most consistent and accessible waves. The long cobblestone point produces a right-hand wave that peels for hundreds of yards on solid swells, with multiple takeoff zones spread across the point. It's a versatile wave that works for longboards, shortboards, and everything in between. The Ventura County Fairgrounds backdrop and the bike path along the coast give it a relaxed, community feel. This is where Ventura learns to surf and where experienced riders go for a fun, low-key session.
