cute local shops and boutiques as well as all the
big-name department stores, Santa Barbara is a treasure
trove for shoppers.

conveniently located along State Street downtown.
Strolling through these quaint cobbled arcades amid
bubbling fountains, palms, and cascading bougainvillea
is sheer shopping pleasure.

marketplaces loaded with antiques, books, gifts,
furnishings, clothing, home and garden items, travel
supplies, handmade crafts, and more. In the
county's smaller cities and towns, charming boutiques,
factory outlet stores, and local wine shops are packed
with unusual finds and great bargains.
