Mary Anne M. • October 20, 2017Great beach for sunsets, easy access, and a good little surf shack restaurant nearby with awesome fish tacos.

Suki • September 17, 2020Nice quiet beach with soft sand and gentle ocean.

Kelley L. • December 17, 2023This wharf has easy parking. The Santa Barbara Shellfish Co. is a really good restaurant at the end.

Jess J. • April 19, 2010The beach access from the lot at the end of Garden Street is the best this year. Right onto the sand instead of having to walk around the slough.

Randy B. • April 17, 2011Sunday's are very busy in the area because of a local art show on the boardwalk. Parking will be expensive and hard to find.
