Thousand Oaks , Carpinteria State Beach

Our family has been camping at Carpinteria State Beach for the past ten years. My best childhood memories come from there, specifically my Grandma taking us there and boogie boarding with us! We are now taking our kids and their Grandma. The rangers and camp hosts are amazing; the park is family friendly because of their hard work and love for the park. My children have learned so much by visiting the tide pools every summer and then attending Jr. Rangers where the rangers and hosts take the kids for some hands on learning. We love this park and the city of Carpinteria State Beach and would lose a much needed and loved family tradition if it closed!
