The Ventura Beach and Pier – Mondo's Beach loop from East Ventura offers a scenic coastal road cycling experience, perfect for those who love ocean views and a relaxed pace. You'll cruise along well-paved paths like the Ventura Beach Promenade and the Omer Rains Coastal Bike Trail, passing the iconic Ventura Pier and watching surfers at Surfer's Point. The route is a moderate 50.7 miles (81.7 km) with a gentle 971 feet (296 metres) of elevation gain, typically taking around 3 hours and 27 minutes.
Planning your ride is straightforward, as the route is mostly flat and suitable for road bikes. While specific parking for East Ventura isn't detailed, you'll find ample parking near the Ventura Pier and along the beach. This loop is a great option for a longer ride without significant climbing, making it accessible for many fitness levels. Always check the coastal weather before you head out, especially for wind.
This loop stands out for combining several popular coastal segments into one enjoyable journey, offering continuous ocean vistas and the chance to spot wildlife like dolphins. Mondo's Beach itself is a small, charming spot known for beginner surfing. The route's connection to other trails, like the Rincon Bike Trail to the north, also provides options if you want to extend your adventure further along the coast.
