Santa Barbara Adventure Company
Canoe & kayak tour agency
👍👍 Had the absolute BEST time on our Sunday kayak tour! I’ve been to the Channel Islands before, but never kayaked. WOW! Our guides were super knowledgeable, accommodating, and made it really easy (they provide wetsuits, dry bags, storage, etc). The tours are in small groups so my friend and I were jus...

Channel Islands Adventure Company

👍👍 The experience this company provides while visiting Channel Islands NP is incredible. I cant express how much I would recommended them! From an easy check-in the morning of at the pier, to actually being on the open water and in the sea caves on kayacks, they made it safe and easy. We did the 4hr to...

Kids World
Playground
👍 Very cool place but not sure if was right for my almost 3 year old, probably better for older kids. I did see a rusty nail, and definitely watch out for splinters. The design is cool and unique (but a bit weird for my taste, haha).

Point Castillo
Scenic spot
👍👍 Gorgeous spot with a great view of the ocean and the mountains. Lots of birds to check out and even some fish if you look closely. A really great walk if you’re trying to get a different view of Santa Barbara.

Eat This Shoot That!
Tourist attraction
😠 I don’t think I have ever been so disappointed with a business before I am even able to visit.
I saw a Groupon for this food tour and was thrilled because I had looked into them in past and wasn’t able to fit it into my trip at the time. Knowing third parties like Groupon take such a high fee for a...

👍👍 Easy to access by car - less than 10 minutes from downtown Santa Barbara. Parking lot + bathrooms available. Not the highest vista in SB, but stunning nonetheless. The history of the Franceschi House and surrounding foliage is quite interesting!
