Tips from locals
Known for kite surfing. A fun place to go watch talented kite surfers, stroll on the beach or get out into the rugged ocean!
One of our other favorite dog friendly beach spots - quiet, less busy in beach season. A local secret. Requires a short walk to access
So this is probably my favorite beach in Santa Cruz County. The views will not disappoint. It is directly off highway one about 15 minutes north of Santa Cruz.
