For a beautiful weekend on the Pacific Coast, it's hard to top Santa Barbara. The pristine city's perfect climate gives rise to a number of natural attractions worth checking out. Stroll through the Santa Barbara Botanic Gardens to view breathtaking flora or hike a scenic nature trail in Los Padres National Forest. The beaches all have their own vibe. East Beach attracts the young and hip while fishing and whale watching beckon a mixed crowd to Arroyo Burro. Indoor enthusiasts will find solace touring the fine collection at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art or poking around the old Mission. For a fresh and delicious seafood dinner, the restaurants on Stearn's Wharf can't be beat.
