Apresentação geral
Santa Cruz
Surf beaches, historic carnival and sequoia forests close to the city.
Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Natural Bridges State Beach and Henry Cowell Redwoods give the most telling landmarks of Santa Cruz. Together, they form a destination where the coastline, urban life, leisure worlds and forests meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.

Nature and landscape
Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk
The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk keep the spirit of California's seaside parks, with wooden roller coasters, arcades, sweet stands and beach just behind the rides. Interest comes from the noise of attractions as well as from the light on Monterey Bay in the late afternoon.
Nature and panorama
Natural Bridges State Beach
Natural Bridges State Beach The eucalyptus grove is named after the rocky arch that stands at the edge of the water, beaten by waves and seabirds. Within the land, the eucalyptus grove welcomes the monarchs in season, suspended in orange clusters when conditions are favourable.
Place indismissible
Henry Cowell Redwoods
