Channel Coast District

About the District

The Channel Coast District manages the State Parks in Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties. The District ranges from Point Sal State Park in northern Santa Barbara County to Mandalay State Beach in Oxnard, Ventura County. These Parks encompass over 8100 acres, including nearly 25 miles of coastline and include 2 State Parks, 3 State Historic Parks and 7 State Beaches. State Parks strive to preserve California’s extraordinary biological diversity and protect it most valued natural and cultural resources. This part of the Central Coast has so much to share about California’s history, from the deep culture of the Native Californians to the Spanish and Mexican periods. The preservation and protection of resources provides for the aesthetic, education, and recreational benefits for park visitors, now and in the future.
