A Note on the Preserve
In 2012, the Trust for Public Land, in partnership with UCSB and the California State Coastal Conservancy, transformed the former Ocean Meadows Golf Course into protected open space. This effort linked over 600 acres of coastal land for public enjoyment and wildlife restoration — creating the stunning landscape now at your doorstep.
