Carpinteria is a small oceanside city located in southeastern Santa Barbara County, California, east of Santa Barbara and northwest of Ventura. The population was 13,040 at the 2010 census.
Carpinteria Beach is known for its gentle slope and calm waves in certain sandy areas but also good surfing swells in some of the more rocky areas. The city embraced the slogan "World's Safest Beach" in 1912, which is still used today. Seals and sea lions can be seen in the area December through May at the rookery in the nearby Carpinteria Bluffs.
