The Channel Islands

A few weeks ago, Beth wanted to check out some beach rental houses in the Channel Islands by Camarillo/Oxnard... figure we'd make a nice little road trip out of it.  Although we got distracted by the outlet malls for a few hours, we still made it to the beach before the sun sets.  This place is gorgeous.

oh hello!

After a nice stroll on the beach in the warm summer weather...
Of course we got hungry :)
We Yelped and found this seafood restaurant thats just a few blocks away from the beach. It was called

Fishermen's Catch
3960 Tradewinds Dr
Oxnard, CA 93035

Fishermen's Catch

Here is what I read in Yelp about this establishment...

Fishermen's Catch is owned and operated by an Italian fishing family, The Guglielmo's, that dates back three generations. The father son team both own their own fishing boats - the Sandy Bea and Philip Nick. They specialize in catching fresh white sea bass, local halibut, crabs and lobsters.


The Guglielmo's opened Fishermen's Catch to bring fresh affordable fish to the public. They take pride in both their fish and their customers. After fishing in the early morning you can visit them at the Fish Market and Grill.They purchase the fish they don't catch from high-quality vendors from all around the United States. If we don't eat it...We won't sell it. Come visit us at Fisherrmen's Catch as we are "Redefining Fresh."

When we were there, The Mom and Pop of the Guglielmo's family would walk around the restaurant cleaning and wiping the tables... chatting and conversing with the customers, old and new.  We felt welcomed... and the food was great!

We also ordered Mahi Mahi taco, calamari taco, sea bass taco and shrimp taco... you just have to try at least one of the 4... we got all 4 :)

And of course we have to order something healthy, so we feel skinny :) Grilled red snapper fillet with grilled vegetables and brown rice.
