JUST THE GIRLS 1 2 Grab your best gals, turn up your favorite Spotify playlist and head for the coast. Arrive at Oxnard's premier beachfront Embassy Suites by Hilton Mandalay Beach Resort for a pampering stay in a multi-room suite. Lay by the pool between the property's tropical waterfalls, group-selfie with a colorful snow cone spiked at the poolside bar and head out the rear gate to play in the waves. Kick off a day of wine tasting with a glass from the oak barrel-aged selection at Rancho Ventavo Cellars' tasting room, located inside a Heritage Square-based Victorian built in 1902. Or sip in more contemporary digs at the edgy Strey Cellars. Line up a cupcake pairing at Magnavino Cellars and on Fridays, stay late for Magnavino After Dark. Dine at Tierra Sur at Herzog Wine Cellars, sampling bites featuring the bounty from local growers. Ease into the next day with Elizabeth White's Stand Up Paddle Board (SUP) Yoga at Sea Dog Yoga at the Channel Islands Harbor. Then head out to open ocean with Island Packers: Explore the pristine waters and one of the largest known sea caves on the planet at the Channel Islands National Park and Marine Sanctuary. 1: Sea Dog Yoga 2: Poolside at Embassy Suites; 3: Wine tasting with girlfriends; 4: Craft beers on tap at Red Tandem Brewery 1: COURTESY SEA DOG YOGA; 3: © STOCKSY/ STUDIO FIRMA 3 46 2019 | VISITOXNARD.COM
