Point Mugu State Park

Point Mugu State Park extends across 14,000 acres of land, featuring coastal bluffs, sand dunes, and two river canyons along the Pacific Ocean.

The coastal area became a protected state park to preserve its natural ecosystems and provide recreational opportunities for Southern California residents.

The park connects to Satwiwa Native American Indian Culture Center, representing the heritage of indigenous peoples who lived in these coastal mountains.

Visitors can access the park through Sycamore Canyon Campground or Ray Miller Trailhead, with both day-use and overnight camping options requiring entrance fees.

The western end of the 70-mile Backbone Trail begins at Ray Miller trailhead, offering paths through mountains where gray whales migrate past during winter.
