California Golf - Santa Barbara
Today, Santa Barbara is a gateway to the wine country of the Central Coast, it's a year-around vacation spot for travelers from all over the world and home to countless Los Angeles-created celebrities, who wanted to escape the madness and traffic jams of the smoggy city.
Tourists find uncrowded beaches, surfing, whale watching, world-class deep-sea fishing, historic mission attractions, mountain hiking, trails in the Los Padres National Forest, gourmet dining, museums, scenic parks and opportunities to visit and explore the nearby Channel Islands.
The travel golfer finds fewer daily-fee opportunities that in the Greater LA basin, naturally, but much more opportunity to get lost in the beauty of rural California at layouts such as Rancho San Marcos, 30 minutes northeast of Santa Barbara, and Solvang's Alisal Courses. Sandpiper Golf Club nestled against the scalloped coastline, and mountainside Glen Annie Golf Club in Goleta are other choices.
