Oceano Dunes OHV Reopens as of 05/21/2026

Keep voting for the Democrats...........They care about the little guy....... THEY ARE ALL IN BED TOGETHER....nothing was "missed" or "overlooked" this was planned for a LONG time.....Same thing with Wemo.......these people are SHIT humans......stop putting them in power..........
 
Pretty sure it's got more to do with the Environazi Orgs than the actual residents...there are not enough of the residents to make a difference, it's the usual suspects....

I'm not up on the area like I used to be. The coastal commission were a big driver in the push to close the area. Environmental angles were a tool. The environmentalists were happy to help.
 
Time to study the Left’s playbook?
Get a coalition of LGBT, Native American, disabled, Veteran, Women, immigrant, family…off-road enthusiasts and go camp in the forbidden zone, make the state “Nazi” agents forcibly remove you.
If this is too much of a hassle then quit bitching and join a bowling league.
 
Sounds like the park did not complete a management plan as required and the enviro group jumped all over it.

FOOD has been doing a good job keeping it open and obtained several favorable court rulings over the years.
 
My kid and his buddy group wanted to attend a Raptor Rally Run in July...NOPE still CLOSED

Limited (1,000) day use is allowed to Post 2 (Where OHV Riding area starts) - no point in even going IMHO


As of May 2026, the area of Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area (SVRA) south of Arroyo Grande Creek is closed to OHV use and camping. The closure began April 14, 2026, following a court ruling regarding endangered species protection. There is no set, guaranteed date for reopening, as it depends on receiving federal permits.
Current Status and 2026 Outlook:
  • Closure Details: The area south of Arroyo Grande Creek is closed to all vehicle access and OHV use.
  • Reopening Trigger: The closure remains in effect until a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) is completed and an Incidental Take Permit (ITP) is issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
  • Projected Timeline: While some reports suggest a potential, unofficial hope for reopening by late May 2026, others indicate the process could take longer.
  • What's Open: Limited day-use vehicle access remains available north of Arroyo Grande Creek, with daily vehicle passes capped at 1,000.
