Port Hueneme Raises Beach Parking to $2.50 per Hour and $10 per Day

PORT HUENEME — CALIFORNIA58 LOCAL. Port Hueneme increased its beach parking charges effective October 19, 2026, according to an official city notice. The new short-stay rate is $2.50 per hour, and the advertised all-day rate is $10.

What residents and visitors should know

The annual permit price is $60 for city residents and $120 for nonresidents. The city says additional vehicles registered within the same household qualify for a 50 percent discount, resulting in rates of $30 and $60 respectively.

Annual parking permits continue to be prorated by quarter. That means a household buying partway through a permit year should check the current prorated amount rather than assume the full annual price is the only option.

City officials say parking revenue helps pay for parking operations, repairs and improvements, including surface maintenance and striping. The pricing notice does not specify how much additional revenue is expected or promise that particular roadwork has already been funded.

Visitors should review parking-lot signs, payment-machine instructions and current permit eligibility before leaving a vehicle. Any special event or construction restrictions may differ from the general fee schedule.
