The Santa Barbara Harbor creates an area safe from rough waves and
currents. People can safely dock in the harbor. Prior to 1920, any sea
vessels calling at Santa Barbara were at the mercy of the weather and
rough seas. Against the recommendation of the Army Corps of Engineers,
an L shaped breakwater was constructed to form the Santa Barbara Harbor.
