| We booked the Surfliner train from Santa Ana to Santa Barbara and saw amazing views along the way. |
 |
| We caught a beautiful sunset our first night at Stearns Wharf - the boats and mountains in the background was so scenic! |
 |
My friend recommended a local brunch place called "The Spot" and it was so perfect! Window ordering with a precious patio complete with yellow umbrellas, drinks in mason jars, and amazing food! My kind of place!
|
 |
We decided to rent bikes which was so much fun and turned out to be the best way to explore!
|
 |
We biked to Butterfly Beach which was absolutely incredible - the views were breathtaking and there were really butterflies everywhere!
|
 |
| The Funkzone was our favorite! It's an artsy area full of local breweries and tasting rooms, shops and restaurants. Fox Wine Co. was a great spot with beer and wine as well as booths featuring different local artists and vendors. |
 |
| The courthouse was another must see. Beautiful historic architecture and breathtaking views from the clock tower! |
 |
We had the best weekend and can't wait to go back! Next time, we'd love to check out some of the wineries and towns nearby.
Our Santa Barbara favorites:
