Depending on who you ask, there are numerous favorite beaches in the Santa Barbara area. Some of the best are gated, like Hope Ranch, and you need a pass or a friend with one. Don’t miss: East Beach (great for volleyball), West Beach (with a nice path for biking and walking), Montecito’s Butterfly Beach; Arroyo Burro (known as Hendry’s) and Miramar Beach. Aspiring surfers should head to Padaro Beach, located just before Santa Claus Lane, which has a good surf camp and shop. While there, break for lunch at the Padaro Beach Grill. You can eat outside there, and they have a giant sandpit for children.
