Beaches and Waterfronts
If you are looking to spend the day by the water, there are tons of options. A few of our favorites below! BUTTERFLY BEACH Located about a half of a mile from the Montecito Inn, Butterfly Beach is a quieter, more secluded spot perfect for relaxing by the water. CABRILLO BOULEVARD Near the lively East Beach, you will find plenty of walking paths, bike rentals, and parks that run down Cabrillo Boulevard. This is one of the more iconic streets in the area with tons to see! The boulevard will lead you to Stearns Wharf and the Santa Barbara Harbor. Walk along the wharf, browse the shops, or grab some food at Brophy's or simply enjoy the views of the fishing boats and coastline.
