Santa Barbara is a city, seat of Santa Barbara County, southwestern California, within the Pacific Ocean; incorporated as a city in 1850. It is a resort upon the Santa Barbara Channel in the foot of the Santa Ynez Mountains. Manufactures include aircraft and aerospace equipment, precision instruments, and electronic components; petroleum is produced offshore. The city is the seat of the University of California-Santa Barbara (1898), Westmont College (1940), Brooks Institute of Photography (1945), the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, and the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History. Of great interest include the breathtaking Mission Santa Barbara (1786 and still active) as well as the Spanish presidio (1782), around which the early settlement grew. The first American settler arrived here during 1816. The site was named by the Spanish explorer Sebastián Vizcaíno, who anchored offshore over the feast day of St. Barbara in 1602.
