Andree Clark Bird Refuge

Andrée Clark Bird Refuge, a 42-acre saltwater marsh, is one of the largest wildlife refuges in Santa Barbara County, California, United States. The refuge has a 29-acre freshwater/brackish lake, an artificially modified estuary, which drains through East Beach into the Pacific Ocean.

The refuge is named for Louise Amelia Andrée Clark, older sister of the reclusive heiress Huguette Clark, who owned the Clark property, Bellosguardo, located across East Cabrillo Boulevard from the salt pond. In 1928, Huguette Clark donated money for the refuge in honor of her sister, who had died of meningitis in 1919, a week before Andrée's 17th birthday.
