 a friendly little airport by AgentJX
The airport serves a surprisingly large number of destinations given its small size (Denver, Seattle, Dallas, Portland and Phoenix as well as the more traditional connecter flights to Los Angles, San Francisco and San Jose). Check in is normally a breeze and the weather is usually pleasant enough that you can wait outside for your flight (the gates have boarding areas with security check points but there are plenty of places to wait outside before going through security.
The airport is actually in Goleta (about 10 miles for downtown Santa Barbara, but there is both a bus stop with direct (although frequent stops) service to the down town transportation center) and plenty of taxis. Leave a Comment

Busses stop are wherever you see the yellow and black MTD sign, usually every few blocks on the route. Be sure to have the exact fare ready when you board and if you need to take another bus to complete your one-way trip ask the driver for a transfer when you pay.
To know about the schedule you must go to the central busses in downtown where you can get a book with all the information about routes and lines or you can also go to the website. Leave a Comment

There are also many Taxi's to choose. They are very useful when you wanna go out dinner or if you are going out at night, because you can call them by phone then they will pick you up at destination.
I recommend you use:
"Orange Cab": 805-964-2800
"Yellow Cab": 805-965-5111
Taxi's can be expensive so ask first.
By the way, the most of the drivers speak spanish too. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

 panorama, please open by richiecdisc
When we left, it was 200 miles to Big Sur but that was a drive to take at a leisurely pace, stopping often. It is a winding, mountainous coastal road so even if driving with not stops it would take you over four hours.
There were few worries, we knew we would be driving up not only most of the California coast in the ensuing weeks but the entire coast of the United States. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Except while in SF, most of the people that travel California will rent or have a car. From wherever you are coming from, this is probably the best option to get to SB. SB is located roughly about 4 ˝ hours south of San Jose (I’ve made it in just over 3 ˝ hours before, but that is not something I would recommend). Or 1 ˝ hours north of the San Fernando Valley, or 2 hours north of LA. Of course, these times are all based on “little traffic”
SB does have it’s own airport, but the prices to fly in and out of here are usually outrageous. For example, to fly from the Bay Area (SF) to LA can be below $100.00, but to fly into SB, you might pay about $350.00. (Hence, renting a car is much better)
Then there is the train, although the cheapest method, and the train station is conveniently located near the heart of Downtown, you will be sacrificing a lot (time & convenience). Where the drive from SJ can be about 4 hours, by train I think you might be looking at about 9 hours. And while in SB, I think it is a good place to have a car so you can explore the mountains and valleys and beaches and I.V. and whatever else you want to. On the other hand, if you are only passing thru for a day or two… then you might not have time to do all those things anyway. Leave a Comment Theme: Other
