About the Venue

Carty Park Playground was reopened in 2025 with a clearly documented set of inclusive features on the City of Oxnard project page. The updated playground includes a double-bay zip line with one traditional seat and one accessible-inclusive seat, multi-bay swings, musical features, a play structure for ages 2-12, and two solo spinners. It is a smaller neighborhood-scale option than a major destination park, but the official feature list makes it a useful accessible playground listing for families in Oxnard. Families should note that the surface is engineered wood fiber rather than poured rubber.
