Actually, the most popular things to do in Santa Barbara are working, driving to your job, watching TV, working out, doing laundry, cooking, cleaning the house, paying bills, working on the car, going to the doctor, shopping, posting on City Data, chatting on the phone, mowing the lawn, fixing something, spying on your neighbors, waiting for customer service on the phone, and running errands.
People in Santa Barbara spend less than 0.5% percent of their time whale watching, kayaking, etc. Maybe the people in the magazine ads spend more time, but 95% of the time a Santa Barbara resident is doing the same thing a Des Moines, Iowa resident is doing.
