The coastal climate of Santa Barbara is always a enjoyable surprise to the first-time visitor. This is particularly true during the winter months – roughly from October through March. Around the turn of the century, many prominent Eastern families came to visit and, unable to resist the lure of the pleasant climate, established their winter residences here.
Santa Barbara is a "get out in the sunshine and fresh air" place, with
all the activities that implies. |
|
| The average annual rainfall is only 15 inches – about the same as many desert resort communities experience. Unlike those resorts, however, there are no sandy windstorms or blistering hot days. Absent, too, are the cold, fierce winter ocean storms that plague many California coast resorts. | |
|
What allows Santa Barbara to escape
inclement weather, is its unique
geographic location. For roughly 40 miles on either side of Santa
Barbara, the California coastline runs almost due East/West. This
alignment moderates the ocean currents that flow past Santa Barbara’s
front door. Towering mountains, very close to the sea, shelter
the coastal strip from inland heat and cold. The Channel Islands, 20
to 30 miles off shore, break the force of ocean storms and quiets the
surf. The result is a comfortable year-round average temperature of 64 degrees, with an average maximum of 74 and an average minimum of 56 degrees. All this means there is no "off-season" in Santa Barbara.. Warm sunshine, beautiful scenery, invigorating, clear, fresh air and congenial people await you year-round. |
