Santa Barbara Zoo




Overview:

Lions with an ocean view!  The Beautiful Santa Barbara Zoo is just two miles from State Street, set on the grounds of a former private estate.  The Zoo cares for rare, beautiful and endangered animals including lions, giraffes, penguins, elephants, gorillas, snow leopards, California condors and many more.

 

“The Audrey Hepburn of Zoos – petite, charming and beautiful.” The Food Network

 

 “A beautiful, peaceful and inspiring place to visit – on your own or with friends. For me, the best single thing about living in Santa Barbara.” John Cleese
