MOST EPIC CAMP SPOT YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF! | Living In A Travel Trailer | Jalama Beach | Van Life

[@raoulpaoul4510]

6 decades surfing there on south swells, many Jalama burgers consumed. Never camped or paid to get in , only one hour from home. Family fav for generations. The springtime drive in when it’s green and the poppies are popping is vintage untouched California Rancho life. Also great ride to bike in on during the week when traffic isn’t an issue. No Place like home Toto

[@janegardner604]

Love that area too! I’m a California girl growing up in LA. Glad they won!! 💙 I love when you show what you eat and daily activities. Thank you for your consistent posts. My husband and I just bought a trailer in March and have been out in it 6 times. We love it but now that it’s getting cold we are wondering if we should try a trip down south but then think it’s probably going to be too crowded….

[@John-Ontario]

So pleasant to hear the audio of the waves and birds. Beautiful scenery. Always informative. Thank you Cat.

[@sonja437]

Beautiful, I love the Pacific Coast of the United States, Washington, Oregon and California. Loved the ocean scenery.

[@cherylbarns-y4m]

Beautiful country. The ocean is magical. Best wishes to you and Joey

[@normamccafferty3053]

Gorgeous scenery! Glad you got to spend time near the ocean you’ve been missing. ❤ Just lovely. We appreciate traveling with you each Sunday morning! Thanks for another great video!

[@aleta5873]

I love the area too.

[@barbaragarrison9133]

Can't get enough ocean and coastal views along with mountain forests and lakes. Thanks for taking us with you, Catherine.

[@TheHighwayHare]

Very beautiful campground. Must be great to hear those waves crashing on the shores at night.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

It was!

[@PhyllisGarcia-cf7fz]

Good morning Cat! 🌄 Oh yes...the ocean 🌊 is a favorite place of mine. Those beautiful crashing waves are so amazing! Those shots of the sunset you got were spectacular!! Yes staying and camping on the beach 🏖️ rejuvenates the soul I believe. Sea air, sea breeze...all good stuff there. Your burgers you two bought looked delicious! 😋 🍔🍟 What a lovely spot to stop and camp at. I hope you enjoyed your stay there. Another great video of beautiful places you always seem to find! Thanks Cat, 😃 and a great big shot out to the Los Angeles Dodgers!! ⚾🏆🎉

[@yayac6503]

Absolutely beautiful I’m so glad you don’t travel alone all the time . I worry about you . Enjoy all videos you put out . I’ve heard that also & started checking to make sure I’m still subscribed . But I do admire your fearlessness. Stay safe & enjoying life .

[@jeffreycalzada3484]

Good morning Cat and Joey. I have been camping at Jalama since the mid 70's. As much as I love my Sierra mountains (Eastern), I can visit the beach daily. I live in Carpinteria, and still make the drive to Jalama. But you often speak highly of the Eastern Sierra, which has been my getaway many years. I know all the places you have visited there and raised my kids there too. Thanks for sharing your trips. Yay Dodgers!🎉

[@steveh.5055]

@@jeffreycalzada3484 Hello to Carpinteria! Carp and the state beach have been a part of my family’s history for 4 generations and my home from 1979 - ‘87.

Beautiful views wind surfing looks good I learned how to surf in 07/08 North Shore Hawaii head a great time God bless y'all be safe ✝️🇺🇲

[@scottthejeepguy7499]

Great video Cat, thanks for taking us along. Safe travels girl. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[@jeannewarrenart]

The coast ❤is my best home since childhood❤ riding horses on the beach, the fresh air, the sound of the surf❤ so theraputic

[@debrabean9277]

I have come to really enjoy your Sunday morning videos! I’m thankful you are doing them in this phase of my life where I am able to watch them.. Making notes for my 2026 trips

[@mickeybrumfield764]

Catherine, it's good to see someone with a healthy approach to watching sporting events. Many folks can become quite unbalanced pulling for their team. One of the places I have yet to visit in California, I'm going to have to put it on my list of places to go.

[@joeannperschall7226]

What a beautiful video Very interesting histor.y you gave on the town. I have learned so.much from you about the west coast. Good to see Joey Again. 😊😊 😊

[@chrisbetts6194]

Great campsite. It's like stepping back in time. Great quality video, as usual.

[@susanjackson1458]

I grew up in Florida and left in 1991. I have to get back to an ocean every once in a while to renew my soul. There is something about getting my feet back in the salt water that does that for me. I live in Missouri now, so it’s not as easy as it used to be. But if I travel anywhere close to a coast, you can bet I’ll make it to the water.

[@seidrover]

I live in Idaho and have only been by the ocean a couple of times but I want my ashes scattered in the ocean when that time comes. Thank you for your tour around that area.

[@z3r0trust]

I think for my family and I, the ocean is our favorite place to camp. The kids love playing at the beach and bodyboarding. My wife and I love sitting under the umbrella and enjoying the ocean views which are just so majestic. Thank you for sharing your RV camping experiences as always. So cool to watch and I always seem to learn something new I didn't know. We've never been to Jalama Beach before and we're not too far from Santa Barbara.

[@metal4x4]

Love the campground on the beach. For me I love the beach in summer and the mountains in the fall. Thank you for another great video.

[@user-dr2js7bv2i]

I like your Gone Squatchin cap!😅 That was some beautiful footage of the beach and the sunset, wow!❤❤

[@briantodd4887]

Enjoy your time on the coastline!

[@robertupchurch8088]

Morning Ms Cat. Beautiful area of the world. I just did a ride from the DC area to Monterey CA via Yosemite, and up the northern CA coast. I lived in Monterey in the 80s. We camped at Big Sur and found reasonable motels otherwise. It was spectacular! Except for a socked in Golden Gate crossing the weather was perfect. The roads and views were worth the miles across some flat and deserted areas. Thanks for this video, it makes me want to go back. 🥳😁

[@CPAndy-x5x]

I love these little towns you take us to!

[@troygunter2848]

I'm like you Catherine. I spent my life in NE Florida. I can leave the coast for periods of time but that Ocean always calls me home. It's in my blood. To stand on the beach...to swim in the water...to surf the rolling waves ...catch the wild fish of many kinds and eat the famous. "Mayport Shrimp". Fishing in Mayport since 1562. On the Mighty St. Johns.

[@carolynklenk8467]

Catherine looking forward to it !! Sending blessings to you!! ❤ Mamma Carolyn

[@Barnabas-r6k]

[@peggynulsen1365]

Happy and safe travels.

[@lawrencewiddis2447]

Crowded RV camps are why I almost exclusively boondock. I’m no sardine!

[@aleta5873]

Loved every second of this video...I've lived in SoCal all my life. Thank you all so much.

[@krisg3984]

You are such a good Photographer ! ❤ You seem to have a deep peace in your soul , to catch such really timeless moment s.really beautiful. I love that tree with roots and the brilliant yellow leaves from last video. And the vastness you caught of the ocean,sky, waves and seemingly small surfers, brilliant ! I myself, feel very restless at the ocean, i get goosebump chills and my bedding feels damp. So im uncomfortable. Its like that song Horse With No Name , but unlike the desert, its never quiet. The intermountain West/ mountains/ desert for me.

[@joyces3550]

Very enjoyable video Catherine, thanks for sharing. Enjoy your cooking, always very tasty looking. So good to see the ocean, I try to get to the beach for a few days every fall when there are fewer people. Thanks again for the beautiful scenery. Have fun, stay safe out there!

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thanks so much 😊

Welcome to Santa Barbara county! 🌊☀️🌴🍷

HI CATHERINE & JOEY 👋 CAN DO WITHOUT THE CROWDS TOO ! BUT LOOKS REALLY GORGEOUS THERE THOUGH ❤ THE FOOD LOOKED MIGHTY TASTY ! THE WAVES , BEACH ⛱️ & SOUNDS OF THE WAVES & WILDLIFE WAS RELAXING . HOPE JOEY HAS A SAFE TRIP 🙏 BE SAFE ☺️ 🙏 ❤️ HAVE FUN ☺️ 🙏ENJOYED ☺️ 🙏GOD BLESS YOU BOTH ALWAYS ON YOUR ADVENTURES 😊 🙏 THANK YOU ☺️ 🙏

[@theresapodrebarac-kc5132]

Thank you so much for introducing me to this state park! I am traveling in my RV & will be in California in Nov/Dec. I just booked this, & will take your food stop advice too. The burgers looked amazing!

[@lynnnorthrup8914]

We are also having an ocean experience but on the southern coast of Oregon. Fish and chips versus burgers! Secret Beach on tap for when the tied goes out and hoping for some awesome footage! And then back to the mountains of Colorado and the badlands of Utah! Travel safely!😀👍

[@GenesisMovie]

I was just at Jalama! What a great campsite/State Park! I also had the Jalama Burger - still stuffed! Yay Dodgers!!!

[@marklass9772]

We will be flowing you again this year to Jalama Beach this time. Our friends do Thanksgiving there with family and this will be the second time we join them. We do leave before Thanksgiving as we spend that with my massive family. A truly amazing place. We got one of the spots right on the beach. 🌈🌴👣 Great video!

[@danrandall794]

Three decades boater and scuba diver here so probably biased but there is just something about water. So glad you are getting your ocean fix.

[@Bleighsadventures]

Absolutely stunning videos I Always save your's for last because they are my favorite 😊

[@ShawnPatterson402]

Great video. another fantastic spot. You are right about crowded campgrounds, it can be miserable and it can be great. In the right setting that is just fine. That is one of the wonderful things about RV camping. So many options of where to park. While you were camped there, we were in Liberty Harbour RV park in Jersey City of all places. Would not be a great campground if it was in Big Bend National Park, but considering its location, it is a wonderful place to park the trailer for a few days.

[@marklang5169]

Such beautiful scenery, music and commentary;-)

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Thank you so much!

[@sweetteaandsharky]

We always enjoy your videos whether it be mountains, beaches , or rv living content. Go Dodgers 😻. Enjoy your time in SoCal and all the best to Joey on his trip.

[@carolinenunez3455]

I love Jalama Beach and Jalama burgers! Incidentally, Lompoc is pronounced “Lom-poke.” So glad you got to enjoy that beautiful beach; can’t wait to see where you land next.

[@MARKCANEER]

Terrific Video!! Lots of wonderful scenery and good cooking too. Thank You for sharing your travels. Stay Safe, keep posting and I'll keep watching 🙏👍🐕‍🦺

[@williampalmquist6710]

Surfs up, Cat! Were they playing Dick Dale? I think we have camped there a couple of times. Nice to fall asleep hearing the ocean. Great video!!❤️

[@rongreen7308]

Very nice. We will put that campground into our list of places to see in the various states.

[@adelevickers2120]

I also love mountains however live on the east coast of Australia in a small town 900mtres from a gorgeous beach. Love the neg ions from the ocean, it has definitely improved my health.

[@rimonagale1625]

Sure enjoyed seeing the ocean with you! 😊🌈🙏

[@JoeD.294.]

Thank you for those beautiful views. The coast around Sants Barbara is beautiful.Thank you Catherine for sharing. Love those DODGERS !

[@rickkaylor8554]

Enjoyed the video. I can't believe that I've never heard of this place. I grew up in Ventura county and have been to the beach campgrounds south - Refugio, Gaviota and El Capitan. We are blessed with so many nice placed to go here in southern California but they are always so crowded.

[@M.Campbell]

Definitely putting this one on my list.

[@birdman5223]

You do capture the mood MsCat, great vibe😎👍☺️ Happy for all the Doyer fans⚾️

[@mobiltec]

Wondering if anyone has ever corrected you on the proper way to pronounce Lompoc? It's Lom POKE.... I used to live there while stationed at Vandenberg AFB. Every time someone said it wrong on the news the whole room would go LOMPOKE!... lol... I love the California coast. I've pretty much done it all. Great way go enjoy my Sunday morning coffee. Thanks for that Cat.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Oops! haha. Thanks for letting me know.

[@jennyfulcher8035]

I've never visited Jalama Beach when I lived in Southern California in the 1970s and 80s. It's a gorgeous sandy beach with the primordial sounds of the surf to lull you into a blissful state. Your pancakes with strawberries, nuts, maple syrup and whipped cream looked absolutely delicious!

[@robertrhode6104]

Good Sunday morning to you and Joey, great to see you guys relaxing and enjoying some down time. Good to see the ocean, but I really love the mountains. Cat you have taken me so many beautiful places, can’t wait to see where we go next. Stay safe and worm! Love you both ❤️ Your friend in Pennsylvania. Bob😘

[@posteroonie]

Nice photography, the golden light from the aspens on that cottonwood trunk, I think it was, and the sundown light on the hills by the beach. 5:48 gotta love marketing, putting Stealth on a big travel trailer. Now it can park in the city and no one will know someone's sleeping in there? 😂😂

[@sharondavis8003]

Love the coast! Jamala would be a perfect campground minus some of the people. Watching all your videos does make me love the mountains more & more 😮Great trip 😊❤

[@DavidHaney1]

❤ GR8 VID ❤ LOVED IT ❤ one of my favorite spots too .. home of big surf spot called tarantula I used to surf back in 1974 ❤

[@marthabradas8873]

What a beautiful place, thank you sooo much for sharing! I just felt as if I were there and it brought me happy tears🥰🥰

[@ConejoValley1A]

I love Jalama Beach! One correction, Jalama is NOT a California State Park. It’s a Santa Barbara County Park.

[@CatherineGregoryAdventures]

Yes…you are correct. Thank you.

[@sandygannon8552]

Your just awesome. Thank you for all the beautiful places

[@CheriBarnett-q1d]

I never tire of the ocean as well, thanks for the beautiful scenery and the history lesson. I get the crowd thing not a fan of crowds.

Camped, cowboy-style, on Jalama Beach in the mid-70s. Totally undeveloped at the time.

Throw some blueberries on the doughy side up pancakes, with whip cream sometime. Very nice a clear vid's.

I'm still subscribed and gave you a thumbs up like I always do after watching your beautiful videos. 🎉✌️

[@danbellefontaine1953]

I took my wife and two kids there in the early 2000's for a spring break vacation. We had a great time while adding surf fishing to our activities. I landed 2 large Cabazon and a crab ( went back) and large surf perch. A medical helicopter landed on the beach also to treat the new nurses lunch at the Cafe. I wonder if the camp closes during rocket launches as they did in the past? Keep up the fine work!

[@EK-mx7zb]

I would love to be on a warm beach. Presently on Antelope Island in Salt Lake and living the birdlife and the bison in camp, and headed to S. UT for a few days to just stay above 32! Careful with the burgers and bacon, that stuff will hurt you!
