UNSET ALONG THE SANTA BARBARA COAST Santa Barbara sunsets are world renowned and winter happens to be the best time of year to see a dazzling display of rainbow sherbert colors spattered across the sky. Once the sun crosses the horizon, the majestic mountains are aglow with deep purple hues. Summer provides a little more warmth and a later start time. Viewing sunset by kayak is truly a unique Santa Barbara experience. This is a great activity or romantic date idea before grabbing happy hour or a glass of wine in the Funk Zone. • Experience the magic of twilight as Santa Barbara transitions from day to night • Watch the stars come out and spot constellations • Learn the basics about navigation at night • Professional guides ensure safe & fun experience
