Mesa

The Neighborhood

The Mesa is one of Santa Barbara’s hottest real estate markets and a wonderful place to live if you enjoy outdoor activities, walking to the beach, being close the harbor as well as downtown, and don’t mind the occasional coastal fog. Home to surfers, students, & families alike, this intimate and friendly neighborhood is located along the cliffs above the harbor and has a number of beaches, parks, restaurants, & shops to choose from. On the mesa, you’ll find many places to have a picnic, BBQ, or play date along the coast including Leadbetter Beach, Shoreline Park, Hendry's Beach and Elings Park. Santa Barbara City College is located between the mesa and the harbor and is an excellent community resource with impressive ocean views.
