Goleta beach is a great place for small gatherings, a family beach day or a bicycle ride along the trails. I've been coming here for years and it is an awesome, well kept park.

When is it easiest to cross the Slough? I would think low tide but maybe it's no that simple.

Gary Shapiro | Sep 13, 2020
J Olíval | Sep 13, 2020

Certain times of year the slough is alot shallower or filled in too. Low tide is always best and there's a flat spread of sand a little ways into the waves that's easiest to cross at because there's no huge dip or hole but you gotta beat the waves lol

Is there any history or information about the cave that you can see from the pier in goleta beach park.

OutdoorExplorer9751 | Sep 14, 2018
JD H. | Sep 14, 2019

Yea, The history is, ....there used to be rock where the cave is now. And then there wasn't. It used to be a natural harbor, and the local chumash Indians lived at the mouth of it for a few thousand years. Having personally seen how the cave is FILLED with detritus at king tides, I would venture a guess that it is a naturally occurring phenomenon.

What's the earliest you can enter to fish off pier?

Ronnie Reitmeier | Sep 13, 2020
Destiny Harrell | Sep 13, 2020

I work with County Parks and can confidently say the pier is open 24/7. While some of the parking lot is closed while the park is closed (sunset to 8am), the lot near the restaurant remains open for people to access the pier at any time they please

At sunset there, I have heard about a periodic flash or spark of the sun. Is this true?

Marjorie Miles | Sep 14, 2019
Sebastian Galvan | Sep 14, 2019

This is true for for some sunsets in general. The 'flash' you see is an optical phenomena, sometimes will occur green, lasts for no more than a second or two! Very cool even if you're lucky to witness it.

I think yes. Because I didn't see any sign about pet and also I saw a lot of dogs there. And also you can make food and drink too.

Is alcohol permitted on the beach?

Yesenia Becerra Salas | Sep 14, 2018
Ralf-Richard Ludwig | Sep 14, 2018

Generally they don't seem to care if it stays within reason but depends really. If you are running around with a six pack of beer and are drunk it can get tricky. I wouldn't trust it and stay away from carrying open liquor or wine bottles

Marisol Romero | Sep 14, 2018
Hugo Gomez | Sep 14, 2018

The park area is not open all night besides the pier. The rulles are you can't sleep in your car overnight. So I would have to say no to the Rv overnight.
