One hundred years ago, it was 1924. Southern California was a magical place. Hollywood was booming; open space, citrus farms, and new roads led to new communities. Los Angeles grew its roots into the nearby beach towns of Venice Beach, Long Beach, and Santa Monica. California was iconic.

The first of 3 beach communities along the Pacific Coast Highway, Solimar Beach Colony. Solimar has the allure, architecture, history, and peace that make it a highly sought-after place to live.

Situated in the north of Ventura County, just off Highway 101 is Mussel Shoals Beach. A pleasant stretch of golden sand backed by a clutch of low-rise beachfront properties, the beach here has a fairly laid-back vibe.

As we travel North on the Pacific Coast Highway, 10 miles from Ventura, is Seacliff Beach Colony.  It’s known for its tranquil atmosphere and a sense of community among its residents.

6 Miles north of Downtown Ventura, along the PCH lies Faria Beach Colony. Faria is 11 miles of community, divided by Mondos Cove, aka“The Cove” a sandy, crescent beach famous for its gentle and consistent waves.
