2022 Map of Goleta

About this map

Los Padres National Forest anchors the northern reaches of this coastal landscape, where the southern slopes of the Santa Ynez Mountains drop toward the Pacific. The area is defined by the complex interface of wetlands and urban development, notably around the Goleta Slough and the prominent Santa Barbara Municipal Airport. The landscape transitions from the protected hillsides through residential pockets like La Patera and El Sueno, down to the extensive shoreline features of More Mesa Beach and Goleta Point.
