Hi. My husband and I will be in Burbank this weekend and would like to do a day trip on Saturday. We have it narrowed down to Santa Barabara or Laguna Beach. Which one would have a easier drive on Saturday? We will have a car. Sunday is an option too but we are taking a red eye flight that night and need to be at LAX by 9:30 p.m., so I%26#39;m not sure if the drive to/from Santa Barbara or Laguna Beach is doable on Sunday? Thanks for your help.
Day trip from Burbank - Santa Barbara or Laguna Beach??
This is a holiday weekend, I%26#39;m not sure if you%26#39;ll encounter traffic, but Laguna Beach is closer. And it%26#39;s something to consider for Sunday, not Saturday, since you could just head straight to LAX and avoid having to go all the way back to Burbank.
Day trip from Burbank - Santa Barbara or Laguna Beach??
You can go to Laguna and go straight to LAX afterwards. It%26#39;s a lot closer to LAX than Santa Barbara. But it really depends on what you%26#39;re interested in doing. If you want to go wine tasting, then Santa Barbara is better. If you go to Laguna, you can also go to Newport Beach nearby.
Laguna Beach may be closer, but Santa Barbara is easier to get to especially from Burbank. The drive down the 5 to Laguna Beach is ugly. The 101 is a much more pleasant drive.
I vote for Santa Barbara, too, based on the ease and relative beauty of the drive. Well, once you get into the Agoura Hills, at any rate. Especially once you hit Oxnard and you%26#39;re driving along the coast.
Their concern is getting to LAX after their day trip. Getting from Santa Barbara to LAX can be a nightmare too. That was the point.
Go to Santa Barbara on Saturday and to Laguna Beach on Sunday! You only live once!
SmartCookie, if I%26#39;m reading the OP right, they%26#39;d like to do a day trip on Saturday. Their flight back from LAX is on Sunday, a redeye leaving in the evening at 9:30 PM. So all of Saturday is free without time constraints; only on Sunday would they be restricted. That%26#39;s why I recommended Santa Barbara on Saturday. I agree that it would be a horrid drive to make on Sunday; that would be a better day to choose to do Laguna.
