Is it better to visit Santa Monica or Santa Barbara?

Best Answers

If I had this decision to make, I would visit both.....2 nights in Santa Monica and then 2 nights in Santa Barbara to relax and unwind after all the activities and sightseeing you would probably do in SM. There is nothing more memorable than staying in one of the beautiful and elegant hotels on Ocean Ave. read more

I commuted to Santa Monica from Santa Barbara for a few years and I still make the trip on a regular basis. At one point I lived in Mar Vista, the town that borders Santa Monica to the south. Two of my sons currently live in Venice — two towns to the south. read more

Santa Barbara is prettier than SM, but it doesn't have the "energy or vibes" of the city of Santa Monica, nor as much of a choice of great restaurants, and the best hotels are very expensive, as much or more than SM. read more
