Welcome to LA CONCHITA! La Conchita was originally established as Punta Gorda in 1880 but renamed La Conchita in 1923. La Conchita is a beachside community just 3 miles south of Carpinteria. We are located just 15 miles north of the City of Ventura, and 15 miles south of Santa Barbara. There you can attend major cultural attractions and sample well-known restaurants and regional wines. We are blessed with a very temperate climate with an average temperature of 70 degrees.

 Our residents come from all walks of life, and this is what makes La Conchita such an interesting and delightful place to live. There are 161 homes in our community and a population of 330 full time residents. Additionally we have vacation homes and some seasonal residents. We parallel the 101 Highway which will be widened to 3 lanes in each direction via a Caltrans project to be started in 2011. Included in the widening project is a pedestrian under crossing that will provide safe beach access for our residents and improvements for the bicycle travelers that pass through this area.
