Santa Cruz Beach
 | Very very crowded beach, good if you're bringing kids, they have roller coasters and everything. But there's a bunch of much nicer and quieter beaches just a few blocks to the north (it's actually west but you know, up the coast). The real nice beaches around here are a few miles up hwy 1 though, strawberry beach, 3 mile beach, 4 mile beach to name a few.... |
San Lorenzo River
 | 1 PHOTO ...andard-floor raft, in the granite gorge before the Rincon, where the river bends to the left to go around a hogsback ridge. The Rincon (Spanish for bend in the river), a pretty place to pull out for a picnic and some hiking, is part of Henry Cowell State Park and is the last chance to exit easily on public property before Santa Cruz. An old road goes up to a large parking area on Hwy 9 here.
Approaching the Rincon the river spreads out and may be too shallow to float; we had to walk a short distance. Also, at the remains of a concrete diversion dam, teh river splits into two channels. The left-most is the one to take as the right will leave you high and not-quite-dry, though I suppose this may change from year to year.
Where the river goes around the Hogsback there is a lot of large woody debris, including a narrow area with strainers that could be quite dangerous. Recently the county has announced that woody debris will no longer be cleared from county streams in an effort to restore our nearly extinct steelhead populations, and this may make the situation even worse. ... |
Pasatiempo Golf Club
 | Great place to play golf I think.... |

Manresa State Beach
 | 13 miles away This is our favorite camping spot along the central coast. Fall (Sept.-Oct.) has the best weather in my opinion. The beach is beautiful and there really is a lot to do in the area.
