summer experiences in Ventura County

by Christine Carlson

s the sun begins to burn a bit more brightly, scorching the air and drawing the sweat from your pores, Ventura County entreats you to get up, get out and experience summer as Southern California intended.

the shame and guilt of succumbing to sluggish inactivity behind the comfort of closed doors. Either that, or we simply put off new experiences, reasoning that all Ventura County has to offer will still be there next year. Well, next year is here and with it a foolproof list that features our Top 10 essential summer experiences that simply can’t be overlooked or postponed a moment longer.

Under the sea

Ventura County’s coastline boasts some of the most beautiful waters on the planet.

— Summer Guide — 2011

Composed of kelp forests, underwater mountain ranges, vibrant marine life and dramatic seascapes, it is a spot that draws divers worldwide. For a truly unforgettable summer experience, hit up Channel Islands Scuba and get certified. Offering small classes, instructors are able to provide an intimate training experience and produce competent divers. Scuba diving — for those who do it — is more than a hobby, it’s a lifestyle. This is an often-overlooked experience that allows you to appreciate Ventura County and its surrounding

waters from an entirely new perspective. Visit http://www. cisdivers.com.
