"If you poll the locals, they always site Butterfly Beach and Hendry's Beach as the two favorites (which means that they're also popular). Butterfly Beach is in Montecito, directly across the road from The Biltmore: Parking spots are hard-won and there aren't a lot of amenities around, so bring a lunch and anything else you might need for the day. Hendry's on the other hand, is next to The Boathouse, which makes it ideal if you don't like to plan ahead (they have kid-friendly food, plus really solid drinks). "

Very clean, well kept beach. Lots of parking available but does cost ($7). There is a nice greenway along the beach and walkway that is easy for strollers to access. Very safe beach as well. A good beach for families.

Public beach. Really beautiful with a large grass area. Bike and walking lanes. and high palm trees. A must see. An 1:45 hours drive away from Los Angeles using the coast highway (around 100 miles drive). Some area accept dogs you must check ahead.

I love this place. Very nice and calm beach. Even kids can swim here. Very small tides. Stunning view. The pier and harbour is amazing. We can rent different types of water activities like kayaking, whale watches, snorkeling etc. Good restaurants are available and restaurants are famous for sea food Sea Urchins and Box Crabs.A good place for a nice one day weekend.

One of my favorite beaches. When we were here it was nice and foggy in the morning but not windy or cold. By afternoon the fog burns off and it's a whole new beach! Filled with sunshine and a royal blue sea.

Santa Barbara Beach is a gorgeous city at the middle coast of the state of California, a typical place to go during the holidays at the summer season. At the spring and summer this city is full of people, and their streets near to the beach is also very full of cars, with trafic jams. The city is full of options to stay as, for example, hotels, camping, lodges etc. It is a good option visit this place, and for sure i recomend it.

Nice beach with scenic views. The sand has lots of tar and sticks to your feet. Will ruin your walk on the beach. I experienced the same thing at the beach by the Goleta pier. It won't wipe off and requires a heavy scrubbing, so it will be with you all day. I'm sure that if you're in the water you're getting it all over your body. It's a shame that the local beaches are so dirty.

Santa Barbara beach! Is there any other happiness merrier than swinging on the beach? And beach volleyball 🏐🏐 The classic palm-tree lined Santa Barbara beach has everything needed under the sun for a fun day in the sand. The beach is gorgeous, has a playground for littles and volleyball courts for adults. There are well maintained restrooms, water spigots to wash off sand. When we visited, there was a yoga on the beach class going on. What a cool way to enjoy nature and workout! Wanted to check out a few film locations of Psych, (the comedy series on Amazon prime with Shawn and Gus) and picked this as one of the spots to visit on our San Diego road trip from the SF Bay area. Parking lot at the Santa Barbara beach is huge and you pay at the meter. Highly recommend this beach if you are in the area.

Beautiful beach with a long walkway, children’s playground and restaurant. Great for families or couples.
