Little Arthur Creek, historically San Antonio Creek, is a 6.1-mile-long (9.8 km)[2] east/southeastward-flowing stream originating just west of the crest of the Santa Cruz Mountains. It joins Uvas Creek about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Gilroy, California, Santa Clara County, California. Uvas Creek is, in turn, tributary to the Pajaro River and thence to Monterey Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
