💡 Tips

  • The Camarillo Premium Outlets are massive and spread across multiple outdoor sections; wear comfortable walking shoes and drive between zones if needed.
  • The weather is mostly sunny and mild, but many mornings feature a marine layer of coastal fog that typically burns off by lunchtime.
  • If you are visiting on a Saturday morning, the local farmers market is an excellent place to pick up fresh California berries.
  • Renting a car is highly recommended, as public transit is quite limited if you want to explore the surrounding rural valleys.
