Must-see attractions

Seacliff State Beach

　　Seacliff State Beach harbors a ‘cement boat,’ a quixotic freighter built of concrete that floated OK, but ended up here as a coastal fishing pier. During huge storms in February 2017, the boat actually broke apart but remains in situ. ...

Seymour Marine Discovery Center

　　This educational center is part of UCSC’s Long Marine Laboratory.

It's about...

Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk

　　The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk has been an Americana classic like few others for over a century. Now as in 1907 when the amusement park first opened, the smell of cotton candy mixes with the salt air, the scene punctuated by the squeals of kids hanging upside down on carnival...

Santa Cruz Surfing Museum

　　A mile southwest of the wharf along the coast, this tiny museum inside an old lighthouse is packed with memorabilia, including vintage redwood surfboards. Fittingly, its location on Lighthouse Point overlooks two popular surf breaks. ...
