Just a couple of blocks down State Street from Downtown Santa Barbara, the waterfront community of West Beach is a gorgeous community between the 101 and the channel. The coastline is, naturally, the most popular attraction, with Shoreline Park and Leadbetter Beach providing superb destinations for sunny afternoons by the water. Santa Barbara City College enjoys a prime location right next to the harbor, allowing students to relax on the beach between classes.
State Street is packed with a huge selection of unique bars, restaurants, coffee shops, and other storefront businesses, all within walking or biking distance from anywhere in the neighborhood. Enjoy a cold pint at Figueroa Mountain Brewing Company, savor local seafood at Santa Barbara FisHouse, or head out to Santa Barbara Shellfish Company for the best ocean views in the city.
