What we’re about
Welcome to Oars & Pours! We're building a community of paddle people (stand up paddle boarders, kayakers, etc.) in the 805. Join us for a weekend paddle followed by a drink and some hangs in Oxnard, Ventura, Carpinteria, Santa Barbara and beyond. 🤙
Whether you're an expert SUPer looking for a little company out on the water, a novice kayaker considering buying a board, or eager to justify your water toy garage space, this group is for you.

See all- Paddle for Breakfast Burritos (Ventura)Harbor Cove Beach, Ventura, CA
Come paddle for breakfast burritos in Ventura Harbor! We'll meet at Harbor Cove Beach, explore the harbor/canals, and finish off with killer breakfast burritos at Harbor Cover Cafe. (NOTE: In the event of heavy winds/currents, we will change the departure point to a more mellow part of the harbor. If that happens, I'll give a heads up the morning of.)
A few notes:
- 🛶 PADDLE: Stand-up paddleboards (SUPs), kayaks, canoes, and the like are all welcome. When in doubt, go for it.
- ⏰ TIMING: We'll plan to set sail no later than 9:10 AM, so please plan to have your paddle gear on the sand and ready to roll.
- 🚗 PARKING: There's plenty of public parking at Harbor Cove Beach. (Note: Paid parking now begins at 10 AM, so don't get a ticket!)
- 💡EXPERIENCE: Ventura Harbor is pretty chill and good for building your confidence. However, the Harbor Cove departure point sometimes involves paddling past small waves before cutting inside. Feel free to pick an alternative starting point if you're more comfortable and find us in the harbor!
- 🛟 RENTALS: We're not affiliated with the rental companies but encourage you to research options on your own!
- ➡️ FORMAT: We typically paddle for about an hour, deflate/load our gear in our cars, and then reconvene for some hangs. Shortcuts are welcome and no worries if you have to cut out after the paddle.
