Santa Barbara Beach

Pet Friendly

Santa Barbara Unleashed

Why leave Fido at home when he can romp along sandy beaches, sit by your feet as you dine outdoors in the sunshine, and sleep curled up in his familiar bed near your side in comfy local digs? Santa Barbara is a paradise for pets, too. Walk for miles in Chase Palm Park and Shoreline Park (leash required), frolic above the waves on the Carpinteria Bluffs, and hike a scenic trail in the Santa Ynez Mountains-pet-adventures abound. So do services, from day spas and bakeries to hotel pet-pampering packages, overnight care, and grooming salons. Fido's tail will wag like crazy to thank you for taking him along!

Off-Leash Areas

Dogs are not allowed on Santa Barbara city beaches, with or without a leash. But they can cavort off-leash east of the slough at Arroyo Burro Beach. Dogs also run and play leash-free at the Douglas Family Preserve, a fabulous open space on the tree-studded bluffs above Arroyo Burro. Or stroll on-leash toward the west to enjoy more scenic views. For a list of county park off-leash dog areas, visit www.countyofsb.org/parks.
