About Gaviota

Located where the Santa Ynez Mountains meet the Pacific, Gaviota encompasses dramatic trestle views and deep coastal history, supported by Gaviota State Park and the private, world-class surf breaks of Hollister Ranch. Gaviota Pier and surrounding point breaks offer specialized surfing setups, while the rocky reefs beneath the railway trestle feature hidden tide pools filled with anemones and sea crabs. While clamming is minimal, beachcombing and coastal hiking are top draws. Consulting tide tables is essential for visitors to safely walk the narrow beach beneath Gaviota’s sheer bluffs, explore the exposed reef ledges at low water, and avoid getting pinned against the cliffs by high tides.
