Description
Remnants of an old WWII artillery turret can be seen on the beaches of Ventura during low tide at certain times of the year. There were originally two gun mounts constructed in 1942 for coastal defense at Camp Seaside. Seaside Wilderness Park and the fairgrounds are now located at the former site. In fact the county fair still uses the quonset huts which were constructed during WWII. The guns were removed in 1945.
