Visitor Info
To be perfectly honest, you could be snatched out of your home or office without warning, dropped into Santa Barbara and within minutes be relaxing over a delectable lunch, leaning into the rounded bouquet of a great pinot noir, strolling through sunny shopping paseos - basically, having a vacation you might spend weeks planning anywhere else.
But this isn't anywhere else. This is The American Riviera®, where you don't have to search out enjoyment because it surrounds you on every side. Still, if you're the type who likes to plan ahead - even if you're in Santa Barbara now and want to know more - we've pulled together a handful of resources to help you out.
Notes on getting around, like the #22 bus, which zips you right to the Museum of Art, Santa Barbara Mission and more. Maps for the Urban Wine Trail or Red Tile Walking tour. Links to our Visitors Magazine, handy e-newsletters and information on Santa Barbara's weather so you know how to dress - it's all here at your fingertips, so you can spend less time planning and more time enjoying.
