Beneath this beach lies the 467-foot hull of the La Jenelle, a luxury liner driven aground here during a coastal storm on April 13, 1970. The State Lands Commission coordinated a joint federal, state, and local governmental effort to convert the remains of the derelict ship from a safety hazard into a recreational area for public benefit. This beachside park and fishing area, constructed with state funds, is maintained by the County of Ventura.
