Narrative:

I had planned an early-evening flight to oxnard municipal airport with a non-pilot friend. Oxnard airport is located approximately 5 NM northwest of naws point mugu. At approximately XX00. I established contact with oxnard tower. They requested that I identify using my transponder, which I did. Subsequently I was cleared to land. My direction of flight on final was between 210-250 degrees -- such that my visibility was significantly impaired due to the glare of the setting sun. Upon contact with the runway, my visibility was restored to the degree that I realized I was not at oxnard, but in fact on a substantially larger runway at an unfamiliar facility. I immediately applied full power and resumed flight, having touched down only briefly. A few mins later, oxnard tower contacted me and asked my location. I responded that I was overwater and requested permission to transition to return to van nuys. The request was approved and I returned to vny without incident. At no time while I was in the restr airspace did I observe any aircraft on the runway, taxiway or in the air at or near naws point mugu.
