THE ORCHID SKATEPARK
A Non Profit Organization on the California Central Coast
this is where fun lives
The Orchid Skatepark is a nonprofit skate and community center on a secluded coastal ranch in Goleta, California, offering an 11,000+ sq ft indoor/outdoor skatepark alongside 60+ acres of farm and beach, barnyard animals, organic greenhouses, an Airbnb, camping, and event spaces.
Built by the community, we blend skateboarding and roller skating, art, and coastal stewardship to create an inclusive hub where people of all ages and abilities—especially children with disabilities, at-risk youth, and underserved neighbors—can learn, grow, and belong.
Skate lessons are provided through our expert-lead programs; Triumph Skateboarding Club and SB Skate Academy. SB Skate Academy also offers after-school programs, adaptive programming, holiday camps, and birthday parties. In addition, the skatepark itself hosts private sessions and community events.
youth programming
After School and Summer Camps coached by professionals for youth ages 5 and up
inclusive environment
People of all backgrounds and experience levels welcomed regardless of race, gender, disabilities, age, or demiographics
community built
Made possible by community efforts, contributions, team builds and volunteers. Donation based since 2012
Our skatepark is built on an Open Access philosophy, welcoming skaters of all experience levels—from first-time riders to advanced athletes. We operate on a donation-based, optional fee structure to ensure economic accessibility, and offer scholarship programs to support at-risk youth and families facing financial hardship. To make skating inclusive for everyone, we are working to provide an adaptive equipment lending library for individuals with disabilities and partner with local organizations to offer transportation assistance for those in remote or underserved areas. Together, these efforts create a space where every skater has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
