Historic mission with a beautiful view from the Pacific
Mission Basilica de Santa Barbara.  The Queen of all Mission churches.  Visited 7 Basilicas on a two day road trip in Southern California last Holy Week.
Lots of history and beautiful gardens at the Mission. This isn't a whole day activity. We got up early and were back to the hotel before the rest of the family woke up!
