Dive in\ \ Start at Santa Barbara Harbor, known for its whale watching, kayaking and jet skiing—or opt for a leisurely water taxi for a slower pace. Layer a swimsuit from Seaquelle, Andrea Iyamah or GirlsMustHave beneath a breezy coverup, styled with SIMKHAI sandals and Bottega sunnies for a polished take on a day by the water. \ \ Shop the edit

When you arrive, celebrate by spending time at the Santa Barbara Harbor, which is known for its whale watching, kayaking, and jet skiing. If you want a more passive but scenic experience, you can also get a sailboat or water taxi for the day. Make sure you have the right attire for it through layering a swimsuit from Seaquelle, Andrea Iyamah, or GirlsMustHave under a coverup that can take the waterside breeze. These Simkhai sandals are the perfect barrier between your feet and the bound-to-be wet surfaces, as are Bottega sunglasses for the sunny Californian city.

Oceanside dining\ \ The American Riviera is home to exceptional sea-to-table dining, much of it set along the Pacific. Book a table at Toma for Italian or Silvers Omakase for sushi, then dress accordingly. Think tightly woven silks and lightweight layering knits to stay warm as the ocean breeze sets in.\ \ Shop the edit
