Lost GPS devices in Santa Barbara
I lost my GPS devices while hiking near Stearns Wharf around 5:30 PM last Friday. Two devices were in a blue zip pouch—one handheld with a cracked screen and a second car-mounted unit. I had walked down State Street toward La Arcada and then looped back toward the harbor, realizing the pouch was gone just outside Stearns Wharf. These tools are essential for field work I do with a local research program, and I’m sick with worry they’ve found their way into the wrong hands.

Lost Pocket Watches near Santa Barbara Mission.
I was walking along State Street, near the Santa Barbara Mission, at about 7:15 PM last Friday when I realized my Pocket Watches were gone. They were two heirloom pieces—one with a blue enamel case and a small dent, the other a gold watch with a fine engraving on the back. I used to wind them every evening at Stearns Wharf before heading home, and the memory of my grandfather's stories keeps me clinging to them. If you found them anywhere around that area, please know they mean everything to me, and I hope they’ll come back home where they belong.
Lost CDs near State Street, Santa Barbara
I lost my CDs on Friday around 8:15 p.m., while I was strolling along State Street near the Santa Barbara Mission. It’s a small, sentimental mix—indie rock and a few old jazz records—that I pull out when I need a mood boost after a long day. I must have left my backpack open when I ducked into a coffee shop for a quick refill. I'm hoping someone who found them drops them somewhere safe; losing them feels like losing a part of my routine.
LOST radios in Santa Barbara, CA
I was packing up after a sunset walk on Saturday around 6:15 p.m., when I realized my radios were missing from my bag. They are two compact handheld devices, one black with a blue trim and a dent near the speaker. I likely dropped them somewhere along State Street, maybe near Stearns Wharf, and I am heart-sick thinking of looking there again at dusk. They have been part of my photography setup for weeks, and losing them feels like losing a small piece of a hobby I love. If you found them, please hold onto them; I would be grateful to get them back through the site.
Lost chargers near Stearns Wharf, Santa Barbara
Hi, I am Mia Thompson. I left my chargers on a bench near Stearns Wharf around 4:15 PM on Tuesday. The tiny orange cable and a black USB-C block are all I want back, especially since they power my work laptop on trips. I retraced the pier and State Street, but the bench is long gone from memory. It would mean a lot to me to have them back.
lost Equipment for Various Sports near East Beach
Hi, I'm Grace Kim. I lost my equipment for various sports around 6:30 p.m. Friday near the East Beach basketball courts along Cabrillo Boulevard in Santa Barbara. It was in a black duffel bag with a red drawstring; inside was a soccer ball, a tennis racket, and a pair of basketball shoes. I've been depending on this gear for weekend practices and a local league, and it's stressing me out to be without it. I last had the bag near the lifeguard stand, then walked to Shoreline Park before realizing it was gone. If found, please know it's mine and I hope to have it back soon.
Lost travel adapters
Hi, I'm Sofia Martinez. I lost my travel adapters while wandering along State Street in downtown Santa Barbara, around 2:15 p.m. on Wednesday, near Stearns Wharf. I had stopped for a quick coffee and was jotting notes for a trip when I realized the adapters were missing. They are essential for staying connected, and I am anxious about making the next leg of my journey without them. If anyone picked them up, I would be grateful to know so I can arrange a pickup through the site.
Lost: Holiday decorations from the porch
This is a lost item. At 2:15 p.m. on Saturday, I stepped out for a quick walk along State Street and returned to my Santa Barbara apartment to find the box of holiday decorations missing from the balcony. They were carefully packed in a red box, ready for the season, including a hand-painted wreath and a set of garlands. I can hear the neighborhood chatter from Stearns Wharf as I think about them, and I feel a mix of frustration and heartbreak because these decorations mean so much to my family. Please keep an eye out for them near Stearns Wharf and the nearby coastal path; they belonged to our little, tradition-filled celebrations.
UCSB student ID on blue lanyard, lost in Santa Barbara
I lost my UCSB student ID yesterday around 4pm near the Starbucks at the corner of State Street and Anacapa. It's a white plastic ID card with my photo and the name 'Priya Patel' printed on it, attached to a blue lanyard with the UCSB logo. There's a tiny coffee stain on the lower left corner and a faint crease along the back edge. The card is standard credit-card size and essential for campus access to the library, dining halls, classes, and dorms, and I'm really hoping someone picked it up and can return it. If you found it, please drop me a message here—I'd be incredibly grateful and can offer a small reward.
Found blue Nike swim trunks near East Beach
I found a pair of blue Nike swim trunks this afternoon around 2:15pm near the bike racks by East Beach in Santa Barbara. They're men's size M, navy blue with a white Nike swoosh on the left leg and orange piping along the sides. The fabric is clean and in good condition, just a bit sandy from the beach, with no rips or tears. There's a small inner zipper pocket on the right hip, which helps identify them. If this is yours, I’d love to help get them back—tell me a distinguishing detail like the lining color or any logos you remember.
Lost contact: blue Moleskine notebook with emergency contacts
I lost my blue Moleskine pocket notebook yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on State Street by Paseo Nuevo. It's a pocket-sized notebook about 3.5 by 5.5 inches, with a black elastic band and a slightly worn blue cover. Inside I keep emergency contacts and a few handwritten reminders; the first page has my initials 'PK' in silver ink, and there’s a small green panda sticker on the back cover. The notebook means a lot to me because it holds my grandma’s handwriting and a few irreplaceable notes, I really need it back. If anyone found it, please email me at [email protected]. I’d be grateful and can offer a small reward.
Teak end table with brass drawer
I found a small mid-century teak end table with a single drawer. It’s about 20 inches square, with tapered legs and a brass handle on the drawer. The finish is warm honey teak with a couple of light scratches along the edges and a tiny water stain on top. I spotted it this afternoon around 4:15 pm outside Trader Joe’s on State Street in Santa Barbara. It seems to be in decent shape, just a little lived-in, and I figured someone might be missing a little piece of furniture after tidying up at home. If this is yours, reach out with a description of the drawer pull and the top stain, and I’ll hold onto it for you.
Black leather coin album with red stitching
I lost my black leather coin album from the 1990s yesterday around 3pm near the Central Library on Anacapa Street in Santa Barbara. It's a 9x11 inch album with red stitching along the spine and a small crease on the bottom-right corner. The cover is smooth faux leather with a faint embossed crest in the center, and inside there are about 40 coins plus a small card with my initials "A.Y." in the corner. It has sentimental value—my grandfather taught me coin collecting, and that binder was one of the few keepsakes I have from him. If found, email me at [email protected]; I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.
