Welcome To Downtown Santa Barbara
Downtown Santa Barbara is a world away and yet so close.
Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Ynez mountains and only a day trip from Los Angeles, its natural beauty and historic architecture have been protected for nearly two centuries. With its year-round Mediterranean climate, this central California coastal destination is a relaxing rendezvous. Downtown Santa Barbara’s main street, State Street, as well as each of its distinct neighborhoods offer renowned architecture and an authentic sense of place, along with amazing shopping, and is a culinary paradise.
