The Funk Zone
The Urban Wine Trail refers to about 28 tasting rooms located within just a couple blocks from each other in the downtown area. It’s not only an excellent way to try the spectacular wines that this area is known for, but it’s a treat to get to know what defines this interesting and beautiful city. The funk zone is a fun place to start! It’s very modern, featuring converted warehouses, graffiti murals, and other unique art pieces.
Inspiration Point
Nice moderate hike. Be prepared to park up to a half mile away from the trail head, as it is all street. On a clear day you can see out to the channel islands and the view is well worth it!
