Things To Do
Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park
Felton, CA 95018
One of our favorite parks in the area, there are miles of hiking trails that cover many unique Santa Cruz ecosystems. There's also a wonderful short loop with giant redwoods!
Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk
400 Beach Street, Santa Cruz, CA 95060
Historic, iconic, and lots of fun! Great rides, right on the beach, and also where they filmed "The Lost Boys" and "Us".
Natural Bridges State Beach
2531 West Cliff Drive, Santa Cruz, CA 95060
Another fantastic park in Santa Cruz, with beautiful meadows, wetlands, and the famous natural bridge rock formation.
Santa Cruz Wharf
21 Municipal Wharf, Santa Cruz, CA 95060
Take a walk to the end of the wharf for amazing views of the town and lots of sea lions sleeping (and yelling at each other) below deck. Finish with a bowl of clam chowder from Stagnaro's!
For all the days along the way
