For those traveling from out of state, the closest airport to Santa Ynez is Santa Barbara. It’s about a 40 minute drive from SBA and about a 2 to 2.5 hour drive from LAX. For those flying into LAX, we recommend an earlier arrival time to beat rush hour traffic.

GPS may route you along the 154 Highway from Santa Barbara to Santa Ynez/Solvang. While scenic, this mountain road can be somewhat challenging to drive, especially at night.

We recommend taking the 101 Freeway, especially in the evening.
