Jalama Beach: - Santa Barbara County (CA) Campground
For those not familiar with the "Central Coast"......
(lots of CA residents have never been to Jalama Beach)
All are "IMO" - your experience/s may vary.
Don't go -:(
During busy summer months - without a reservation.
(But still expect a campground "zoo")
If you don't like a long (time wise) drive on a 2-lane 15 mile twisty entry road. "Senic" it's *not*!
If the sign says - "Campground Full" - believe it.
You can't just "visit" to check it out, you *will* pay a day use fee.
If your RV is a long trailer.
If you expect full hookups.
Go -:C
For a Jalama Burger.
For miles of empty beaches.
When school is in session.
