Attraction

Santa Cruz Main Beach

Along Beach St. west from San Lorenzo River, Santa Cruz, CA

Featuring a boardwalk, an amusement park, beach volleyball, and of course, swimming, Santa Cruz Main Beach is the city’s most centrally-located and its most popular beach among locals and tourists alike. Think Coney Island West. With the city in view in the background, you and your family can ride a roller coaster, play arcade games, or just lie in the sand. The scene is vibrant and excellent for people watching.
