This earthy and exotic beach town offers visitors an array of opportunities for R&R. A hippie haven in the '60s, Santa Cruz's laid-back, artist-friendly vibe permeates the shops and nightlife of the community.

Quirky outings, natural wonders and more laid-back attractions.
Feel like a kid again at this classic beachside boardwalk.
Head north to California's oldest park for waterfalls and the largest redwoods south of San Francisco.
Fill up on hearty eats or dine at a romantic seaside restaurant.
After a full day of playing, rest your head at a cozy retreat.
