Personal ObservationsLa Purisima is probably my favorite mission. It is beautifully restored and sits on a large site. There are large animal enclosures and fields in a small valley. The chapel is no longer used, but many of the work areas are restored.I have visited several times over the years and hope to again once Covid is less of an issue. |

2295 Purisima Road Lompoc, CA 93436 From Highway 101, exit at State Highway 246 west at Buellton. (My recommendation is stop at Pea Soup Andersen's in Buellton for something to eat.) (Mission Santa Ines is only about five miles east of Buellton on the same Highway 246.) After about 14 miles west of Buellton, turn right onto Purisima Road for about a mile. The mission is on the right. Daily 9-5. |
