Please share your Santa Barbara Secrets

I live just an hour north, have been too many times to count and am looking for wonderful things to do, things to see that I may have missed!!

If you've been recent y, please share your facorites! Shops, restaurants, tours, whatever.

Thanks in advance.

My family moved there in 1969, but (incredibly) it wasn't til a couple years ago that I bothered to drive Camino Cielo Drive. *IF* the day is clear, the views are spectacular; at some turn offs you can see past the Channel Islands AND into Cachuma Lake region. I wanted to kick myself for all the years I never bothered to drive up there.

If it's cloudy or hazy, don't bother.

Perfect! I have seen that sign so many times and wondered what was up there! Hopefully it will be clear on my Friday afternoon and we can go on our way from SB to Grappolo's in Santa Ynez! Thanks!

Anyone else?

Haven't been there in awhile, but I really liked the botanical gardens and a very small park in Monticito (with tennis courts)--can't remember the name, but I doubt there are many parks with tennis courts in Monticito (not even sure if I'm spelling that right).
