Things To Do
Hiking: Inspiration Point
about 2 mile hike round trip, ~800ft elevation gain, great views
Walk on the beach!
Hendry's beach is Imogen's favorite beach. "Boathouse at Hendry's" also happens to be a great place to end your stroll, get some drinks (they have a great bloody mary if you are into that kind of thing) and take in the scenery!
Wine tasting in the Funk Zone
The funk zone is right downtown and has a number of tasting rooms within walking distance of each other (also very close to the beach!). Lots of fun to hop around and taste some good wines!
Beach volleyball at East beach
~50 beach volleyball courts setup and ready to go!
Renaud's Patisserie & Bistro
Best croissants in Santa Barbara - hands down! Imogen would do an almost weekly pilgrimage to this place when we lived here. They have two locations both on State Street.
Lucky Penny
Great place for a pre- or mid- wine tasting stop as it's right in the middle of the funk zone. Great pizzas, sandwiches, and salads.
Olio e Limone Ristorante & Olio Pizzeria
This is our favorite place for pizza in Santa Barbara. They also have a great wine selection. Conveniently located downtown close to everything.
C'est Cheese
Our favorite place for cheese and also a great place for grabbing a nice lunch. Very close to the Court House, which (if open) offers great views of Santa Barbara and the ocean.
D'Angelo's Bread
Great spot for breakfast - some of the best poached eggs you will ever taste!
Arigato Sushi
We had many a date night here - great spot for sushi!
