"Mellow beach just up HWY 1 from Santa Cruz. Tends to be a little more naturey and less trafficked than the places in town, but definitely be sure to grab picnic supplies before you head there since it’s a ways away from town.
During low tide you can explore around the corner of the cliffs to the South - just make sure you make it back before the tides change again!"

"A bit of a hike down to this beach, but totally worth spending the day here. One of my favorite beaches in all of Santa Cruz. Love to watch the sunset here. If you don't want to hike down, you can enjoy equally stunning views from the top of the cliff."
