"Beach and palms"

This is a beautiful, quintessential California beach.  Surrounded by large palms, the sand stretches from undeveloped cliff to undeveloped cliff.  Lots of families come to this beach to camp, play in the waves and go on adventures with various kayaking tour groups.
We started our kayaking tour with the Santa Barbara Adventure Company at this beach.  The waves were mild and the water was clear.  It was a great place to start and it was so beautiful!

Good restrooms, a snack and supply shop, and lots of parking enhance the good beach experience.  This is a great beach to visit or camp at!
