wildcats40 Posted February 3, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 3, 2015 We'll be stopping in Santa Barbara on a cruise in May. We're thinking of doing the trolley tour in the morning, going back to the ship for lunch, and then going to Stearns Wharf for a little while in the afternoon. Is it worthwhile and how far is it from the port? Are there seals there? Thanks, Elaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Elaine Santa Barbara is a tender port and I wouldn't bother with going back to the ship for lunch unless you enjoy tendering. Santa Barbara is full of nice restaurants and wine tasting rooms that you may like. Here's a note that I wrote in my journal. Santa Barbara We took the $.50 shuttle ($.25 if you're 62+) to the top of State St. and took the $1.75 #11 bus to Pueblo St. and walked the 4 blocks to the Old Mission. We spent just over a hour at the mission. We then walked around the block to the Museum of Natural Science. It reminded me of those old museums I used to visit with my school as the displays were mainly taxidermy. We headed back to town and spent some time tasting on the "Urban Wine Trail". Au bon Climat had some tasty pinot noir and I ended up buying 2 bottles. As the shuttles were packed with cruisers, we walked back to the ship. If you want to take the shuttle back to the ship, catch it on it's way up State St. as it will be full coming down State St.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted March 6, 2015 #3 Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) It's not showing up but there's a Santa Barbara thread. Do a search for 'Barbara' and it will pop up. Edited March 6, 2015 by SadieN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
