I applaud your goal. Santa Monica area is about the closest, but traffic and driving time could make a big difference. Oxnard/Ventura area, perhaps. You are talking about a minimum of about 2 hours travel each way. More bang for the buck if you did a local clean up - vacant lots, graffiti removal as has been suggested. Something that you might look into is clean up of a section of a local stream, creek or river - what gets dumped into small creeks and rivers is unbelievable. It would be something that your club could take a great deal of pride in, and that kind of a project could get some support from other local civic or conservation groups. Could even get local news coverage. Good luck.

OMG, answer the question, people! OK, just so you know, you're going to have to drive a LONG ways to get to any beach. And, just as an editorial, Bakersfield is probably the last place I'd spend any time during the summer, except maybe to get gas and some fast food, and keep going. Anyways, the nearest beach is about 140 miles away, whether you go to Santa Monica, Santa Barbara, or Pismo. I would recommend Carpinteria State Beach ("World's Safest"), or Pismo Beach. The main problem is that there is a mountain range between Bakersfield and the coast, and you will have to drive through the mountains whichever route you take. Good luck!

Bakersfield is nowhere near the beach. Closest is about 3 hours in Pismo Beach (that's where all the Bakos go.)

I'm sorry but Bakersfield is about a few hour away from the nearest beach. If your looking for a nice beach close to there I suggest Cambria or San Simeon, both of which are safe and nice. Have Fun
