Pacific Coast polo at its finest since 1911.
,
Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club is one of America's most storied and scenic polo venues, perched between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean on California's celebrated south coast. Founded in 1911, it is among the oldest continuously operating polo clubs in the United States, a living piece of the sport's American heritage.\n\nThe club hosts the prestigious Pacific Coast Open — one of the USPA's most coveted trophies — drawing the world's top professionals to its immaculate grass fields each summer. The combination of championship polo and California's Mediterranean climate creates an atmosphere unlike any other venue in the country: morning fog giving way to warm afternoons, the mountains as backdrop, and the ocean as horizon.\n\nSanta Barbara's facilities include multiple regulation grass fields, a full clubhouse with dining terrace, professional stabling for visiting strings, and the spectator amenities that make Sunday matches a social event as much as a sporting one. The club attracts a mix of serious polo patrons, professional players, and Los Angeles-area celebrities who make the 90-minute drive north for a uniquely Californian polo experience.\n\nBeyond the Open, the club runs a full season of club chukkas, lessons for beginners and intermediate players, and a polo school programme that has introduced generations of Californians to the sport. Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club is where Pacific Coast polo reaches its highest expression.
