In the northernmost region of California's Central Coast, Santa Cruz County beckons with warm, sandy beaches, redwood-covered mountains, rolling farmland, world-class wine tasting and spectacular attractions.

Santa Cruz County's special ambiance has attracted visitors since the mid-1800s when beachfront bath-houses catered to the Victorian-era modesty. While much has changed since those early days, Santa Cruz County remains one of California's most popular seaside playgrounds. It also serves as the gateway to the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary.
