Santa Barbara to Santa Monica Audio Tour

Despre activitate

Drive the Pacific Coast Highway your way with a tour that plays right from your phone. Follow the coast at your own pace, stop at any beach, and hear simple stories that guide you along ocean cliffs, wide sandy shores, and famous seaside towns. You choose when to start, where to stop, and how long to stay.

Begin in Santa Barbara and head south toward Santa Monica. Pull over at scenic lookouts, walk along quiet beaches, or grab food in local beach towns along the way. Watch surfers ride the waves, spot dolphins in the distance, and enjoy cool ocean breezes as you drive.

Your phone gives easy directions, works without internet, and stays with you forever so you can return anytime.

Itinerar

  1. Stearns Wharf

    o oră

    Stearns Wharf is located in the Santa Barbara harbor. Dating back to 1872, it's the oldest working wooden wharf in California, and one of the longest. There are restaurants, scenic overlooks, places to fish, beach access, and a natural history museum. The views from the wharf of the city and the Santa Ynez Mountains behind it are spectacular.

  2. Butterfly Beach

    30 min

    This quiet beach is located within the chic and luxurious village of Montecito, which is home to several celebrities. So you never know who you'll bump into! Walk along the top of the cliffs, or find a set of stairs to reach the beach below. There are no public facilities. Park on either side of Channel Drive.

  3. Carpinteria State Beach

    Trecere fără oprire

    Carpinteria Beach is known as a family-friendly beach, with gentle waves and a wide, shallow area to enjoy the sand. Parking is free in town nearby, which has lots of restaurants and shopping. Restrooms are available.

  4. Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve

    30 min

    This nature preserve features easy trails to the Carpinteria Bluffs, and a rookery of harbor seals. The hike from the parking lot to the harbor seal rookery is about one mile round trip, all across easy, flat ground. When you reach the ocean, turn right and continue towards an old pier. The seal rookery is close to the pier. To see the tar pits, continue along the path, and add about another mile round trip.

  5. Oprirea 5

    10 min

    When construction crews were building the Pacific Coast Highway, they blasted right through the middle of a hill right next to the ocean, splitting it in half. The half by the water creates a unique shape at Mugu Point, and an interesting place to get out of the car and explore.

  6. Oprirea 6

    o oră

    This touristy but famous seafood and grill restaurant right along the PCH has been featured in several movies. Prices are reasonable, and County Line Beach is right across the street. This iconic beach is referenced in the Beach Boys' song Surfin' USA.

  7. Oprirea 7

    45 min

    Leo Carillo has a wide, sandy beach perfect for swimming, surfing, and lounging in the sand. Additionally, there is an interesting rocky area to explore, with cliffs and sea caves. The opening sequence of Grease was filmed here.

  8. El Matador State Beach

    Trecere fără oprire

    Part of Robert H. Meyer Memorial State Beach, El Matador is a pocket park with cool rock formations and sea caves. It's a short but steep walk from the parking lot to the beach. There's a small parking lot with paid parking. Otherwise, park for free on the Pacific Coast Highway. Restrooms are available.

  9. Westward Beach

    Trecere fără oprire

    Westward Beach is directly below Point Dume, and just to the west. With Point Dume dramatically standing next to it, the beach is an exciting place to explore. Climb around the point to the secluded Pirate's Cove behind the cliffs. You can also hike from the beach to the top of Point Dume. The trail is about 1 mile round trip and considered moderate, with some considerable incline. Restrooms are available.

  10. Oprirea 10

    45 min

    Point Dume is one of the most dramatic overlooks along the Pacific Coast Highway! Around two miles of trails criss cross this prominent point overlooking the ocean, and the secluded beaches below. Multiple Hollywood movies have filmed here, including some very iconic moments. Parking is free but limited. Parking is more plentiful at Westward Beach below. To hike between the two, the trail is about a mile round trip with some moderate incline.

  11. Oprirea 11

    Trecere fără oprire

    Escondido Falls is an unusual waterfall, with a mossy 'beard' hanging over the drop. The trail is 3.5 miles round trip and moderately difficult. The first mile is an uphill path along the paved Winding Way road, going past mansions. Then, the Escondido Canyon Trailhead is easily visible with a big brown sign. The rest of the trail is partially shaded, with some small water crossings. There are actually three waterfalls, with the first the easiest to reach. No restrooms available.

  12. Solstice Canyon

    2 ore

    This 3-mile loop is mostly shaded and passes a small waterfall, as well as the ruins of some historic homes that were the victim of a wildfire. The trail is paved for about a half mile and is mostly easy, except for a steep climb up the ridge. It's easy to turn around and avoid the steep part altogether, and make this an out and back hike. Otherwise, the entire loop is moderately difficult. Restrooms are located 100 feet up the trail.

  13. Malibu Lagoon State Beach

    30 min Intrarea nu este inclusă

    This beach is adjacent to Malibu Pier, and is a popular surfing destination. Within the park is the Adamson House overlooking a short bluff. The house is open for tours and features historic, local ceramic work. There's also an adjacent local history museum.

    The park is located next to the Malibu Movie Colony, where celebrities are known to keep vacation homes. Across the lagoon from the Adamson House is another parking area, and a path to another beach next to the homes.

  14. Malibu Pier

    30 min

    This popular landmark attracts people from all over for its scenery, restaurants, and fishing. Rentals are available for fishing equipment. There's also access to the beach.
