Santa Barbara is a city on the central California coast, with the Santa Ynez Mountains as dramatic backdrop. Santa Barbara offers escape and relaxation, along with opportunities to contemplate the ocean, mountains, and engaging vistas. The Santa Ynez Mountains are a portion of the Transverse Ranges, part of the Pacific Coast Ranges of the west coast of North America. It is the westernmost range in the Transverse Ranges. The range is a large fault block of Cenozoic age created by the movements of the Santa Ynez Fault. A very narrow range, the Santa Ynez Mountains rise quickly on its north side and drops off equally dramatically along the range's south face. The Santa Ynez Mountains begin as a series of volcanic hills near Point Arguello, and gradually transitions eastward into a single, well-defined ridge extending from Gaviota Peak to Matilija Creek. The range is somewhat contiguous with the Topatopa Mountains beyond to the east, which terminates abruptly at Sespe Creek. The climate of the range is Mediterranean with semi-arid characteristics. Most of the range lies in the California chaparral and woodlands ecoregion. At the crest, rainier regions support large groves of conifers, primarily Coulter pines. A visit to Santa Barbara wouldn't be complete without getting your feet in the sand. Located just steps away from the area's most exclusive beach and only a short drive to Santa Barbara's most popular beaches and seafood restaurants, the Montecito Inn offers a convenient and seamless transition into the area's active and sophisticated seaside culture. Year-round sandy shores provide endless enjoyment of this beautiful part of the California coast.
