🎓 Graduation Trip to Santa Barbara 🌟

Just explored this stunning coastal gem—here’s my take! 🏛️ County Courthouse Designed in Spanish Colonial Revival style with clean lines, curved roofs, and decorative details blending Spanish/Mexican influences. The interior features gorgeous murals, woodcarvings, and ceramic work reflecting California’s history. Pro tip: Climb (or take the elevator 😉) to the top for a panoramic view of Santa Barbara! ⛪ Old Mission Santa Barbara Built in 1786, known as the "Pearl of California" 💖. A historic and cultural landmark with photogenic pink walls. Go on a sunny day for the best photos! 📸 🌊 Cabrillo Rd + Waterfront & Pier Where blue skies meet turquoise waters—absolutely breathtaking! 🏝️ Watch boats glide by with mountain backdrops. Sunset hour is magical—golden light, colorful reflections, and pure "California vibes". 🌅 🌈 Chromatic Gate 📍 721 E Cabrillo Blvd A vibrant artistic installation perfect for photos! 🌮 Santo Mezcal Delicious Mexican spot! Must-try: Beef Tacos 🤤. 🇪🇸 Loquita Highly recommended Spanish restaurant (check my previous guide for details!). #SantaBarbara #USA #Travel #Photography #CoastalVibes #Foodie #GraduationTrip 🎉📸🌴
