Explore the Beauty "In Between"
A day trip through the hidden magic between Santa Barbara and Solvang—designed to celebrate your next chapter.
Waterfalls, whimsical stops, opportunities to wine taste, and a harbor cruise to close it all out… this is your day to play, connect, reflect, and explore what’s unfolding in between.
We’ll start the morning with pastries and a welcome at the Santa Barbara Harbor before heading north for a peaceful nature walk to Nojoqui Falls.
From there, it’s all about curiosity and discovery. Feed ostriches at Ostrichland. Sip and savor a relaxed brunch at a local vineyard. And then explore a quirky corner of Solvang, where you’ll pick a meaningful trinket to represent your own personal “in between.”
We’ll wrap the day back at the harbor with a golden-hour cruise—a chance to share stories, soak in the sunset, and honor where you’ve been… and where you’re going.
OVERVIEW
Our first stop is a gentle, tree-lined walk to Nojoqui Falls—a tucked-away waterfall that feels like a secret. Along the way, you'll receive a personal prompt to help quiet your mind and anchor you in the moment. It's a chance to breathe, reflect, and begin your day feeling grounded in nature and open to what's ahead.
Next up: a quirky, joy-sparking stop at Ostrichland! Grab a bowl of feed and get up close with these curious (and slightly chaotic) creatures. It’s unexpected, a little wild, and guaranteed to make you laugh—because sometimes, the best part of the journey is the surprise detour that reminds you not to take life too seriously.
We’ll gather for a relaxed brunch at Vega Vineyard & Farm—where rustic charm meets local flavor. Surrounded by rolling vines and wide-open skies, we’ll slow down, share a delicious meal, and savor this beautiful in-between moment together. The food is fresh, farm-to-table, and grown right on site—so every bite feels as nourishing as the view. Sip (or skip) the wine, and soak in the peaceful countryside vibes that make this place feel like a deep exhale.
You’ll have time to explore Solvang at your own pace—wander through the charming Danish-inspired streets, pop into local boutiques, or treat yourself to something sweet. Before we head out, we’ll gather at Esko’s Bazaar, a whimsical little shop filled with curiosities and treasures. Here, you’ll choose a trinket that speaks to your own “in between”—a small keepsake to remember where you are, where you’re going, or simply the magic of this shared adventure.
We’ll close the day with a private golden hour harbor cruise—gathering onboard The Whisper as the sun begins to dip. With sea breeze in our hair and our Solvang treasures in hand, we’ll share reflections, laughter, and the stories behind the keepsakes we chose. It’s a gentle, joyful finale to a day spent exploring the beauty in between.
