Sespe Creek is a stream, some 61 miles (98 km) long, in Ventura County, California, in the United States. The creek starts at Potrero Seco in the Sierra Madre Mountains, and is formed by more than thirty tributary streams before it empties into the Santa Clara River in Fillmore. Thirty-one miles of Sespe Creek are designated as a National Scenic Waterway, and are untouched by dams or concrete channels. It is one of the last wild rivers in southern California.
