You don’t need to venture far to find inspiration for your next Instagram post at UCSB. Here are 8 places on or around campus that will take your Instagram feed to the next level!
1. The Beach
This one’s a no-brainer; you can’t come to UCSB and not take pictures of/at the beach! Any of the beaches off campus will be just what you need to take your Instagram feed to the next level.

2. Lagoon Road
Want those beachy vibes without going to the beach? Lagoon Road will do just that. With the sandy pathway, tall palm trees, and the ocean in the distance it will look as though you have traveled to a place forever stuck in summer.
3. Goleta Pier
Still sticking to a summery theme, head to Goleta Pier (within walking and biking distance from campus). Any shots on the pier, of the ocean, a friend, or even the birds will be a hit.
