Andree Clark Bird Refuge


The Andree Clark Bird Refuge is one of the most beautiful and serene places to visit in Santa Barbara. Located across from East Beach it is a surprisingly peaceful lagoon with many species of water fowl and natural lake vegetation. This refuge was named in 1930 and designed to harbor wild birds that migrate through or reside permanently in our area. Visitors can take advantage of the well maintained bike trails and walking pathways which provide an enjoyable setting in which to experience our natural world. Just pack a lunch and watch the birds or cruse the path on rollerblades. Nature tours are available and the refuge and nearby beach makes a great outing for the kiddies. If you're lucky you may even get a sneak peak of the giraffes at the Santa Barbara Zoo next door.
