Creator's Key Takeaways

Santa Barbara is a central California coastal city with a population of 88 000 people and someone from Santa Barbara is known as a Santa Barbarian

we visited Santa Barbara in early February and as you can see there wasn't a single cloud in the sky and the temperatures outside did hover around 70 to 75 degrees at Peak temperature

the locals in Santa Barbara are very social and one of their favorite things to do is go out for drinks that includes cocktails beers wine after all Sonoma County is very close to here so wine tasting in Santa Barbara is a thing

I would recommend doing it before or after breakfast or brunch whatever you want to do and then we will actually walk over to the dolphin Fountain
