4. Explore Santa Barbara on an Electric Bike
The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara is the first hotel in Santa Barbara to officially offer guests complimentary use of the brand-new fleet of electric bikes by BCycle.
All-electric bicycles can transport travelers up to 30 miles on a single charge at a maximum speed of 17 mph.
If you decide to go beyond the maximum range, the bike can be pedaled back to the resort just as one would a traditional, single-speed manual bike.
5. Embrace Santa Barbara’s Natural Beauty with a Jean-Michel Cousteau Educational Program
Explore the natural environment of California’s Gaviota Coast under the tutelage of professionals trained by Cousteau and his chief scientist, Richard Murphy, Ph.D.
Engage in guided nature walks on land and on sand, both in the daytime and at night. These special explorations, however, are just one facet of the diverse and engaging program. “There’s an entire menu of activities,” says Murphy.
