For some gorgeous photo ops, make sure to visit two iconic landmarks: the Old Mission and Courthouse.

Get in your shopping and walking with the old Spanish style stores on State St; almost all are dog friendly.

You can’t leave Santa Barbara without hitting the wine trail! Check out the hip Municipal Winemakers (pictured above) or Deep Sea Tasting Room: located on the pier, sit on an outdoor deck while getting a view of the big blue ocean. They even have a wine named after their pup Ringo! $1 from every bottle of Ringo’s Rescue Red goes to Dog Adoption Welfare Group (DAWG).

….aaaand the famous McConnell’s Ice Cream! No other ice cream compares. The original location on Mission St (201 W Mission St) has an outdoor patio with plenty of chairs and tables.
