Overview of three day visit to Santa Barbara, including Old Mission, East Beach, Hendry's Beach, and downtown. @seniorsolotravel Senior Solo Travel Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/443309331791413 For Senior Travelers: It is a safe city. It has steep roads the higher you go up the mountain; however, the downtown area is relatively flat. For Solo Travelers: Again it is safe and easy to navigate; however, it is an expensive city in terms of lodging, so can be cost prohibitive for solo travelers.
