1000 Steps Beach, also known as the Thousand Steps, is a popular tourist attraction located at 1429 Shoreline Drive in Santa Barbara, California.

Reviews of 1000 Steps Beach
"Beautiful photo spot! Definitely not 1000 steps and there’s hand rails available. Take about 6min ish to walk all the way down. It is much smaller/shorter than I expected but overall good spot to visit."
"Beautiful place to visit! Definitely check the weather for high tide as we were not able to enjoy the beach even though the view was beautiful! Parking is limited at the end of a dead end street, the time of day we went was close to 1:00 p.m. and We were the only ones there. I can't really rate the beach itself since we weren't on it but the views are astounding!"
"Beautiful beach and, despite the name, it isn’t 1000 steps down to the beach. About 150 stairs with a good hand rail and you’re there. Make sure you pay attention to the ride because, if it’s high tide, there is no beach to walk. Go during low tide!!"
"Unique coastal spot that is a worthy stop if you’re passing through. This is not a beach where are you are going to sit down and enjoy the waves. This is a long staircase that leads down directly into the ocean, which is a pretty cool concept. The ocean waves are crashing against the stairs and the handrails which reverberate all the way to the top just makes for some interesting sounds as you’re walking down. Plan to spend about 10 to 15 minutes here. The walk down isn’t very challenging but if you are physically in bad shape, it might be a little hard for you. This makes for some pretty pictures and it’s not very crowded. There’s plenty of street parking but please respect the nearby houses and properties"
"Came here on a Sunday early morning (Around 7 am). Quiet, peaceful, beautiful walk down the stairs & along the beach. Very unique shells if you like to collect! Highly recommend to check it out even if it's a short walk!"
