Carpinteria

Carpinteria combines a relaxed beach-town pace with an agricultural setting in a way that reflects its position between the Pacific Ocean and the foothills of the Santa Ynez Mountains. Carpinteria State Beach runs along the town’s oceanfront, while the Carpinteria Salt Marsh preserves an important coastal wetland nearby. The name dates to the 1769 Portolá expedition, whose members noted Chumash people building plank canoes here and called the site La Carpintería, or “the carpentry shop.” Continue to other webcams along California’s Central Coast to compare shorelines and communities around Carpinteria.
