What is Santa Cruz

Santa Cruz is a small coastal city (population about 55,000) in Santa Cruz County, on the north end of Monterey Bay in California, about forty miles south of San Jose. While it gained some tech jobs during the boom, it is still best known for fun weekend tourist attractions like the Beach Boardwalk and the Mystery Spot, and its University of California campus. It also has one of the world's best Disc Golf Courses at Delaveaga.

About Santa Cruz

I used to live here. A sleepy little university town, with a unique personality - half burned out hippies, half dot com-ers coming in from the valley, and uh, half university students. I know that that's a lt of people, but whatever. A definite surfing spot if you're so inclined! If not, check out the Boardwalk, go on some rides, and han gout on the beach.

This is where monarch butterflies stay for a portion of the year. A fantastic sight!

Gorgeous hiking area with old growth redwoods that dwarf a person.

We went hiking here for a day with a friend. This was a very beautiful place with extremely tall trees. Not very good for hiking though, but nice for seeing the trees and nature.

A lighthouse with a nice view. Stop if you're passing by but don't go over your head to get here.

Busy, crowded and way too expensive.

Pizza My Heart, right down by the waterfront. You can get a slice and a t-shirt for $5.

Zelda's is a great place to get a margarita.

Just an hour's drive south of SF is one of the redwood parks. A truly awesome place with huge trees and good hiking possibilities. Definitely good for a day trip.

An old lighthouse that was taken out of use. A pretty beautiful scenery but that's it. Not really worth stopping by unless you have excess time.

Well, there's nothing in Palo Alto. Ok, there's the Cheesecake Factory here but that's it. Otherwise not a place to be on a vacation.
