  • Area around the lighthouse is very nice and clean. We were there at low tide, so we could walk up to the lighthouse without getting drenched by breaking waves. Very cool!

  • We went to Santa Cruz Harbor Beach on a gorgeous sunny December day. Its a nice place to walk and see the views. We also had lunch at the Crow's Nest

  • The harbor is one of my favorite places to go to in Santa Cruz! Of course, it is literally right next to my favorite beach, Twin Lakes! There is always something to do here, whether it is a walk around the harbor or out on the jetty or down the beach which is best to walk at low tide. You can eat Mexican food, grab a mocha, sit down to eat at the Crows Nest and more! In addition, you can rent a kayak or a paddle board as well as set sail on the Chardonnay or an O’Neil adventure. Grab a coffee at Java Junction. And watch the sunrise or take a seat at the Crows Nest and watch the sunset. There is all this and more to do and see!
  • Very nice place to surf fish either from the rocks or shore, restrooms and showers here and a nice restaurant Crows Nest if you don't wanna eat inside they have a snack shack on the side. Nice lil family beach the residents are very nice.
