Everything Else

Beautiful park with some historic buildings, coastal view trail. There's a dedicated bike route most of the way from here, to there. Also mountain biking up in the hills there, too intense for us!

A lovely place to stroll or ride a bike. You may see dolphins, whales, and otters. Certainly lots of birds and Santa Cruz denizens flock there on most sunny, foggy, rainy, or cloudy days.
