    It's a boring wharf/pier, nothing much to see and do, other than dining at the restaurants. Driving into the pier and parking on wooden planks was kind of fun. we were in and out in less than 30 minutes. LOL.

    When in Santa Barbara I always enjoying strolling down the pier at the Stearns Wharf located at State Street and Cabrillo. The pier provides a relaxing stroll to enjoy the ocean, beaches and amenities on the pier. On the pier you can find multiple restaurants (although maybe over price), an aquarium, seafood stand and more. Plus there is parking right on the pier for those who do not want to walk. The first 90 minutes of parking is free. The cost after the 90 minutes is per an hour and is a minimal cost-$4.00. Best to go during non peak season to avoid the crowds. I like early mornings and after or during big storms to see the waves. Cheers!

    So beautiful for a walk out here. The sun came out and it brightened the whole atmosphere. There is parking inside the pier but you pay. They have public restrooms available. There are more restaurants with sea views as well and the place to board on yacht tours, etc. overall, a lively pier here in downtown Santa Barbara.

    Beautiful pier. Free parking on the pier for the first 90 minutes, then it's $4/hr. There were plenty of free street parking in the surrounding neighborhood. Came during a Saturday morning around Christmas time. Some of the restaurants on the pier decorated for Christmas. It wasn't busy when we went and there was plenty of parking on the pier. There were a lot of people fishing at the end of the pier. Some were successful at catching fish. When we were there, there was a pelican patiently waiting to steal fish. The restroom on the pier was unfortunately out of order, but they had some clean porta potties with water and soap.

    Stearns Wharf is in Santa Barbara. It's the oldest working g wharf in California. It was built in 1873. 2300 foot long. Yes it's that long, to allow ocean ships back then to tow up at low tide. John Peck "JP" Stearns opened a lumber yard in 1867 and needed a way to ship lumber. He got a backer, Colonel William Hollister, to help him finance and build the wharf. Fast forward to today, they have a restaurants, shops, bait & tackle shop, boat rides, and a Sea Center aquarium. The crazy thing about the wharf is that you can drive your car out onto it and park. The wharf acts as a parking lot too. Wild! We drove our car out there and parked. Parking is free for the first 90 minutes. $3 for each additional hour. There is a public restroom but it was a wet mess. A layer of water was on the ground as if they hosed it down. So if you are unsteady on your feet, precede with caution. Folks can fish off the pier. We saw a young man catch a thresher shark. Wow. The vibe of the pier was casual, even the eateries. Walk out to the furthest point and catch the 360 views. Beautiful! I bet the sunset is spectacular against the drop into the ocean's horizon.

    Stearns Wharf is the pier in Santa Barbara that I like to take a walk on after breakfast and shopping. It's an old pier made up of old lumber, put together with large nuts and bolts. Cars are allowed to park on it, so when you're walking, you can hear and feel the vibrations as people are driving their automobiles on and off the pier. As you're walking onto the pier, there's a small aquarium and store on your left. The right hand side is lined with a few restaurants with a restaurant at the end of the parking lot. I like to walk to the end of the pier where people are either fishing, eating, or hanging out, enjoying the beautiful ocean view. One of the last times I was here, there was a pelican resting on the rail. People were taking selfies with it. Poor thing, some guy was touching it and trying to pose him/her. He/she didn't find it amusing and was biting the guy, who really didn't care. Some people. There are also a handful of cart vendors selling fresh fruit and perhaps an unnecessary something or other.

    Another beautiful day in paradise

    This iconic Santa Barbara landmark is a must-see for all locals and out-of-towners. Built in 1872, this pier has survived several natural disasters, including the earthquake of 1925 and the severe storms of 1983. Located at the south end of State Street where it meets Cabrillo Blvd, it is surrounded by hotels, restaurants, and The Funk Zone. You are also greeted by the iconic "Dolphin Family" sculpture fountain right there at the foot of Stearns Wharf. This sculpture was created by renowned local sculptor, artist, and environmental activist James "Bud" Bottoms. Along with the restaurants, shops, bait and tackle shop, gallery, Deep Sea Wine Tasting Room, and a fun water taxi, they feature the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History Sea Center. Walking or biking out on to the pier is fun and easy, and parking is available on the pier (first 90 minutes are free). A great way to plan a day or two on Stearns Wharf Pier is visit their website: stearnswharf.org

    Great views of the city and fun to watch the cars drive in the wharf. Good places to eat and a few souvenir shops to browse

    It's one of the places you tend to alway do even though you've done it tons of times. Well, it's a staples in Santa Barbara. Right in the heart of town and along the waterfront. Obviously it's a must to check it out. It's on the main intersection of Cabrillo and State St. There's parking on the pier which is free for 90 min with validation I believe. The beginning of the pier has an amazing view of the marina and beach. Beautiful white sand. Pier, there's a few restaurants on. All has amazing view of the waterfront. There's also little mom and pops shops that serves its purpose. One side of the pier there's a museum. Never been in so can't really say. If you walk all the way down to the end, you'll have all you locals fishing and having a good time. There's also another seafood restaurant that you order and find a seat. End of the pier is quite wide and perfect for watching the boats go by. Amazing view of the while marina, as well as the beach and hillside. A staples in Santa Barbara that should be seen and checked out. An easy walk along it and perfect for a date night or a family getaway. Parking can be busy as it does get pretty full.

    We headed over to Stearns Wharf for the beautiful views and loved that we could actually drive and park on the pier. I was expecting the lot to be full by noon on a Saturday. But, there was plenty of parking and the first 90 minutes were free with a purchase. Not quite sure how they check to see if you made a purchase. We left and no receipt or stamped ticket was requested. There are a few seafood restaurants, gift/speciality shops, and a Sea Center with paid admission on the pier. I found the cost of a T-Shirt to be way overpriced and opted for a sticker instead. The views are gorgeous and relaxing. It was a short, but worth it, stop for us.

    Always stop here to eat or just walk the wharf! It's early so most places are closed! We are heading north to pismo Beach!

    Amber S.

    Definitely very cute place for families however paying $15 for admission is a little steep, the place is very small and there's not much to see but the one cool thing is there are lots of little sea creatures that you're able to touch with a gentle stroke of two fingers. The kids there seemed to love it so that's all that matters right?!

    Zoe C.

    The cool part of this pier is that you can actually drive your car on the wooden pier. No charge for the first 1 1/2 hours. The view is amazing. Like most piers, they have food restaurants and Novelty stores, a nice place to visit.

No, not to hang out and gawk at folks at court. But to soak in the beauty and history of the building. This place is gorgeous. Spanish colonial architecture, mural paintings, tower overlook, clock room, sunken garden, and you might catch a glimpse of a wedding or two. I saw four. I held back on wedding crashing though. Apparently you can rent the Mural room or Sunken garden terrace for weddings. Plus small wedding ceremonies are allowed in the public areas of the Sunken garden lawn, in first come first serve basis. The 4 story Spanish Moorish style building was built in 1929. It was built after the original courthouse, that was built in 1872, suffered damage in the 1925 earthquake. -Sunken garden The foundations of the original courthouse is where the sunken tropical gardens are currently. There is a big swath of lush green lawn. The multitude of palm trees that tower around the garden are from various countries. 35 specimens of palm trees. -Sandstone water fountain In the front of the courthouse building facing Anacapa Street is a sandstone water fountain "Spirit of the Ocean". It was built by a Venetian sculptor in 1929. -Free tours Step inside the building to see take a tour, a free self guided tour or join a free docent led tour. There was a huge crowd of folks waiting to get in, the crowd included an entire wedding party along with the tourists and everyday county residents. Security funneled everyone quickly through the security checkpoint. - Clock tower viewing platform I chose to do a self guided tour and took the elevator to the 4th floor to the clock tower viewing station. There was an option to climb stairs, which I choose to take going down. From that vantage point, I noticed that downtown Santa Barbara has no high rise buildings. This building was the tallest. The 360 degree views of the mountains, ocean and valley were beautiful. -Bison Schnell clock gallery display room Then I took the stairs down. On the 3rd floor was Bison Schall clock gallery. The room is a display showing the tower's functioning Seth Thomas clock timepiece and the history of classic cos and timekeeping. It's super cool to see the actual clock hammers move and strike. The room is not always open since it's staffed by volunteers. But not to worry, the glass wall allows you to view the clock and room contents from the stairwell. - Mural room and hallway I entered the 2nd floor and began walking down a hallway with huge oil painted framed murals depicting the early days of European contact with the Native Chumash. The hallways were vast with its high vaulted ceilings and arches The Mural Room is located in this floor. This is where folks rent out for wedding ceremonies. It has wooden pews. murals covering its walls and high vaulted ceilings. I didn't go in because a wedding was just finishing up. -Tiled staircase I then took the outdoor spiral, Spanish tiled, staircase to the first floor. But right next to the staircase is a beautiful mosaic tiled wall alcove.

I was checking out "Local Flavor" on Yelp and this was the first place listed. I had to go see it. It is located at the corner of Calle Puerto Vallarta & E. Cabrillo Blvd. in Cabrillo Park. At 21 feet tall, you can spot it from down the street. Plus it does stand out with it's blue, purple, red, mauve, orange and yellow colors! This gate was installed in 1991 and it had become faded and easy to miss, so it was restored! The restoration was completed in 2013. The new paint is highly durable aircraft specialty paint. Hopefully, it will last longer than the initial paint! Herbert Bayer is the man behind this art. He designed it but passed away in 1985 before it was built. This Gate is a Memorial to Herbert and his wife, Joella. You may recognize Herbert Bayer's other works. For example, Arco's red diamond shape called the ARCO "Spark" logo. And for Angelenos, we have a sculpture in Downtown Los Angeles called the Double Ascension. It is located in front of the City National Plaza (previously known as Arco Plaza) surrounded by a pool of water. He also designed the Articulated Wall which looks like a stack of French Fries, located in Denver, CO. I've seen these three in real life and with research, realized each one was created by Bayer! As stated in other reviews, this makes for a nice Photo Op and is Instagram worthy! If neither of these is your thing, then just come see it as an Art Installation. The next time I come back to Santa Barbara, I would love to see this lit at night!

You don't need to use your imagination why: Simply venture here at sunrise/sunset and you'll be macking with whomever is closest to you due to the natural romance in the Californian air. It also helps that the temperature is sometimes +10* warmer since it is in the mountains. ;) History: Kissing Point is about a third of the way up (or three-quarters of the way down depending on your route) Old San Marcos Road. This was the original stagecoach route to cross over the mountains prior to the current San Marcos Pass/Route 154 between 1861 and 1901. There are a few weathered historical markers along the way but anyone will easily be impressed by the hard work put into carving out the road. How to get here?: The easiest route to reach Kissing Point is by exiting off the 101 Freeway at Patterson Rd and going toward the mountains, turn right on Cathedral Oaks, then turn left when you've reached San Marcos Rd. Kissing Point consists of only two unmarked dirt pull-offs (one now with bollards due to erosion). There is also a third and fourth pull-off much further up hill but with very limited space. What do I see?: The views are from the Santa Ynez Foothills down into Santa Barbara and Goleta Valley with easy landmarks being the Santa Barbara Airport, University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB), Old Town Goleta, the Pacific Ocean's Santa Barbara Channel, and almost all of the Channel Islands in the distance on a clear day (from north to south: San Miguel, Santa Rosa, Santa Cruz--the most obviously, and Anacapa Islands). I am spoiled to have this scenic drive only minutes from my house since it offers not only some of the best aerial views (ie particularly from Kissing Point) but also a backroad option to access Route 154 that goes over the Santa Ynez Mountains toward popular destinations including Lake Cachuma, Santa Ynez Valley Wine Country, and Solvang. A few tips: - I have included the precise location on the Yelp map, in addition to GPS coordinates, in the Quick Tips. - Check out my video of the drive down this twisty road with views for days: https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select_video=OgU4LsTKlJ7Eqyh60KKdcA&userid=4DyMRBKrokax6d8LCI3GAw. - People love to drive extremely fast up and down (including myself). Be cautious of mountain bikers and motorcycles, particularly around the two hairpin U-turns toward the top. - As the signs heed, put on your headlights during the night AND day. - Please clean up after yourself. Unfortunately there is plenty of trash and glass bottles left behind. Don't be this person.

We went once to pick up sandwiches, then dropped in last month for an easy Friday lunch. It's been a valuable addition to our Santa Barbara rotation. We will probably take out more than we dine in, but our sit-down lunch was quite pleasant. The shop is small and charming, and it has a lovely patio with full table service. Our waiter was attentive and helpful. We ordered two glasses of Prà Otto Soave, a nice Italian white. Such a treat to have wine on a patio with a sandwich lunch. I've tried a handful of the sandwiches, and all of them have been great. I'd highly recommend the finocchiona, with fennel salami, fresh pecorino, artichoke cream, and eggplant. The capocollo is good too, with coppa salami, spicy pecorino, arugula, and extra virgin olive oil. My husband's go-to is the caprese, a solid sandwich with cured prosciutto, buffalo mozzarella, fresh tomatoes, basil, and extra virgin olive oil, though it does taste much better with balsamic vinegar, which our waiter was able to provide. On the hot side, I've enjoyed the porchetta, with pork belly roulade, provola, roasted peppers, and lemon dijon. Portions are on the small side, and the focaccia was better on our first visit (I'm guessing it was fresher that day), but overall, I've really liked the sandwiches. If you want Italian sandwiches in Santa Barbara, Olio Bottega is probably the place to get them. I look forward to my next lunch, whether it's at home or on that patio.

    Wow amazing views and chill vibes in the middle of Santa Barbara/Oak Park area off State Street…read more You can park on the street with a designated driver or walk and get a stiff one pool side and feel like you're at a retro bar in Palm Springs. They have a "Nightcap at nine," menu for that late night until closing time that includes $6 Draft Beer, $10 House Cocktails, $10 Wines by the Glass and $8 Dealer's Choice Cocktail! Snacks and hot meals for takeaway/to go/dining in. Drinks that are so tasty on a hot day that are my faves is the Prosecco with OJ Mimosa and the Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita!

This fun eventful evening kicked off at the Saint Remy rooftop. Who knew this amazing part of the hotel existed! I surely didn't. The servers were so kind to greet us and we began with a refreshing piña colada drink called "Airplane Mode". This definitely gave me the feeling of being on a tropical vacation. The charcuterie board and Mezze board was such a beautiful presentation. Loaded with meats, veggies, cheese, fruit, olives, warm pita bread and dips. It truly was the perfect noshing food to match the variety of drinks we got to try. The margarita shooters consisted of sweet, spicy and classic. All of them were perfectly made and enjoyable. The balsamic glazed seasonal vegetables were also delicious. The veggies had a nice grilled flavor and the balsamic vinaigrette gave it a nice tangy kick. I also got to try the chimichurri steak bites. Although the meat was a little chewy and tough for me, but the flavor was there. Overall a beautiful event on the rooftop of Saint Remy. Thank you Jara and Saint Remy staff for hosting this magical event!
