Gaviota Rest Area Goleta, CA

The view is scenic and beautiful all around. A few picnic tables make for a relaxing lunch before getting back in the car. The restrooms are clean. When we were there a huge cluster of wasps had a nest close to a tree situated right next to the parking. We just walked around it and thankfully the wasps did not seem to care about the close proximity of people to their nest. So nobody got chased down by the wasps thank God.

This is our favorite place to stop along the journey from point A to point B and back again.

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs. If you'd like to send me a message or comment, please do so at; maggie@hungryones.com We just celebrated our 14th Anniversary this October 2016!! So exciting!! 2015 A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting. Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.
