Santa Barbara, CaliforniaThe city of Santa Barbara lies about 100 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles. A drive up highway 101, will take you past magnificent ocean views. As you leave the urban landscape of Southern California, you'll find yourself in a coastal oasis, that is referred to as The American Riviera.
Located between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, the city is a popular tourist and resort destination. You can spend days exploring the history and culture found within the city's boundaries.
Five Stops On The Beaten PathListen in as we share our own personal stories of some of Santa Barbara's supplemental attractions. On this episode, we take you on a trip through six places that are somewhat off the beaten path. If you are a first time visitor to Santa Barbara, plan to do at least one of these items, though you can even squeeze in several on a weekend visit.
