This place has great fresh fish and is very popular. Lunch is a great time to visit and afterwards you can walk to the beach and spot some whales. Get some clam chowder to go when you've finished and you'll be in for another treat. It's a little out of the way but if you are driving up to Santa Cruz it's a great pit stop.

Parks & Nature

Great for a long walk, a hike or a jog. All trails are off leash for your dog. Trails go up into the hills with great views. Garland is one of my favorite places.

Pinnacles recently became a National Park and is worthy of the title. A drive inland will take you here. In the summer it can get hot so go early and take plenty of water. The best time of year is the spring when you can enjoy the wild flowers and cooler temperatures. Parking is limited - get there early!
