Motels in Lompoc

Beneath the radar of most travellers, this flower seed capital bursts into technicolour each spring when fields bloom like nature's confetti. La Purisima Mission State Historic Park offers a remarkably intact Spanish mission where peacocks strut across grounds as if they own the place. Wine enthusiasts flock to Sta. Rita Hills tasting rooms for Pinot Noir that somehow captures fog and sunshine in liquid form. The Lompoc Murals transform city centre walls into an outdoor gallery celebrating local history with surprising wit. Jalama Beach County Park rewards those willing to navigate the winding road with powerful surf and the legendary Jalama Burger. Locals proudly point skyward when rockets launch from nearby Vandenberg Space Force Base, temporary celestial neighbors to the wildflower fields.
