Goleta Beach County Park

34 24' 92 N
119 50' 17 W

The parking lot is protected by riprap, and more of the large rocks can be seen in the distance at the base of a cliff. Waves have begun to cut a tunnel out of the weaker parts of the cliff.

The community of Goleta is aware of the rapid erosion threatening the park. They have formed a working group to develop long term plans along with science advisors to protect their park.
