Summerland
Population: 1,545
The town's name says it all: it's a classic California beach town. Swing off the 101 at Evans Avenue, just a few miles south of Santa Barbara, to the coastal enclave nestled between verdant hillsides and sparkling beaches. Stroll along Lillie Avenue and browse for antiques or unique home furnishings. Fill up on omelets or burgers at a Summerland restaurant, and then shop for swimsuits and head for the beach! On the way, stop at blufftop Lookout Park, just above the waves, and take in the killer views.
