Highlights of Santa Cruz are first, its
unique and free-spirit nature. With a
progressive University of Santa Cruz located
uphill in the redwood forests, making it one
of the loveliest campuses in existence
(Pepperdine University in Malibu was chosen
Number One for scenery, the youthful
college influence provides healthy doses of
creative thought in art, music, clothing and
lifestyles.
Surfing is
beloved by locals such as the O'Neill family
and company that gained wealth initially
through development of wetsuits for surfing.
There's a surfing museum, surfing statue and
fantastic beaches such as Steamers Lane
known around the globe for surfing.
One of the
most fantastic attractions in Santa Cruz is
the Board Walk, a historic amusement park
located on the sand overlooking the Pacific
Ocean. To top off a perfect beach experience
with Coney Island style rides, games and
food, you can take an authentic steam train
from the redwood forests in Felton to the
amusements. It's almost too good to be true.
The charm of Santa Cruz is beyond compare.
While there, be sure to visit nearby
Capitola and Aptos.
