Food scene

A short walk and beautiful views of the Santa Cruz harbor and lighthouse. The more formal dining room is downstairs. Upstairs it's more casual for burgers, fish & chips, etc. with lots of patio seating.

A favorite brunch spot 2 blocks away. There is usually a line to get in, but it's worth it. A favorite of our guests.

Mexican restaurant in a beautiful historic hotel building. Notice the tiled ceiling. Inventive margaritas. There is also a sister casual taqueria appended to it - great food at budget prices.

Unique restaurant by the river. A funicular ride down the landscaped hillside to a hidden treasure. Sit on the deck by the river for a more casual meal, or in the historical dining room for a step up. The go-to restaurant for our family's special occasions.

The name says it all. Sit on the deck with a margarita or planter's punch and gaze at the Pacific Ocean and the beautiful cliff side village of Capitola. Life is good.

Sightseeing

We take all of our visitors here - there is a flat easy 1 mile loop trail (will even work for strollers & wheelchairs) through the giant redwood trees. In nearby Felton - about a 15 minute drive (approximately 5 miles) away.

You've seen the bumper stickers - you need to see it. Pretty kitschy but a perfect little jaunt and fun for the whole family. About 15 minutes away.

Yes, there's the Boardwalk, but a stroll on the wharf is nice too. The wharf is just beyond the Boardwalk and has shops, restaurants, fish market, ice cream parlor - even a tiki restaurant with a rotating bar. Towards the end of the wharf you can see and hear the seal lions lounging on the pylons.
