Arroyo Burro Beach County Park, Santa Barbara Ca



The locals call it Hendry's Beach -a place to meet for breakfast or a cocktail at sunset, stroll or jog the sandy shore, watch for whales, surf fish, or ride the wild surf. Known for its sandy beaches, swimming, surfing and surf fishing, this park also offers a cool grassy area for picnics and playing. The MTD bus stops at the park entrance.
Park Features:
BBQ Grills, Beach Access, Benches or Picnic Tables, Bird Watching, Equestrian Trails, Fishing, Group Picnic Areas, Restaurant or Snacks, Restrooms, Surfing, Swimming.
Location:
Arroyo Burro Beach County Park is located 5 miles west of Santa Barbara's city center on Cliff Drive near Hope Ranch. From Highway 101 take Las Positas Road south to Cliff Drive. Turn right and travel 1/2 mile to the park entrance.



The new Self-Operated Pet Spa at the Santa Barbara County Park opened on Sunday, March 8, 2009. The press release stated that Arroyo Burro Beach is a popular destination for dog owners, due to its proximity immediately to the west of the City of Santa Barbara's off-leash beach below the Douglas Family Preserve. A constant refrain from many dog owners was the dearth of a convenient place to wash their pets after runs on the beach. Now, dogs and their owners can run and splash on the beach and not worry about getting dirty.
