$4 million worth of marijuana scattered on California beach Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department Authorities say the marijuana on Arroyo Camada Beach had a street value of $4 million. By Jonathan Lloyd, NBC Los Angeles About 2,000 pounds of marijuana worth an estimated $4 million was scattered in bales on a beach near Santa Barbara, Calif., on Sunday after a drug smuggling boat washed ashore. The bales were found on Arroyo Camada Beach, near Refugio State Beach. The 30-foot panga boat - an open, outboard powered boat - was found on the shore, equipped with about 20 fuel containers. The 50 bales of marijuana have an estimated street value of about $4 million, according to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department. The drugs were found partially hidden in bushes near a road leading from the beach. About 20 panga-style boats have landed on the Santa Barbara County coastline during the past two years. The boats are commonly used to transport drugs and other contraband.
