Santa Barbara ranked among the top destinations to spend spring break in 2022, according to the Yelp ranking shared on March 24.
The coastal destination earned its place thanks to its landscape of scenic mountains and beaches and its perfect waves for surfing – with interest in the city up 122% compared to last year, according to Yelp.
