Learn more about Carpinteria

Beneath the Santa Ynez Mountains, a small seaside paradise awaits with what locals proudly call the 'World's Safest Beach.' Gentle waves at Carpinteria State Beach create perfect conditions for beginning surfers or families with small children. Downtown reveals an unpretentious collection of surf shops, taco stands, and cafes where avocados travel mere miles from orchard to plate. The Seal Sanctuary offers views of harbor seals lounging on offshore rocks. Rincon Beach Park draws experienced surfers to legendary breaks. For a perfect afternoon, grab a used paperback from the Friends of the Library bookstore, then claim a patch of sand as pelicans patrol overhead. Visit during the annual Avocado Festival when this humble fruit receives a well-deserved celebration.

Motel 6 Carpinteria, CA - Santa Barbara - North

Motel 6 Carpinteria, CA - Santa Barbara - North

10/10 Excellent
"Front desk attendant was exceptionally attentive. Room was clean. Air conditioner was needed and it worked quickly and well. Plenty of parking. I will say: the shower was strange. I get why it is set up the way it is (points water towards the corner to avoid spilling out onto the floor and is probably easier to clean), but it made for a uncomfortable experience. Not something to dock rating stars over, but I had to say something."
