A county bluff-top park in the small town of Summerland with a playground, volleyball, picnic tables, a dog wash, and a paved path down to a calm, sandy beach — one of the few SoCal beaches where horseback riding is permitted.

    ​Beautiful spot near Santa Barbara! My wife and I were just passing through, grabbed a coffee, and walked around. It was a hot, gorgeous day and surprisingly not crowded at all. If you want a peaceful beach day away from the crowds, this is it. The beach is dog friendly and clean, there’s an easy ramp to get down to the sand, and the surrounding area has some really cute shops. They even have a dog wash station next to the beach showers—Definitely worth the stop!

    Such a cute park with amazing views! I greatly appreciate the dog washing station ($10 for 10 minutes of washing/blowdry - but soap is provided in the machine!). Super nice after my dog rolled in the sand at the beach below!
