From there the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Main Beach and Municipal Wharf are a ten-minute walk (see our map on this page). Heading in the opposite direction on West Cliff brings you to Natural Bridges State Park and Beach.

Weather/Climate in Santa Cruz has mild weather throughout the year, enjoying a warm-summer Mediterranean climate characterized by cool, wet winters and warm, mostly dry summers. Due to its proximity to Monterey Bay, fog and low overcast are common during the night and morning hours, especially in the summer. Bring a light jacket, sweatshirt for mornings and evenings in summer! Many guests return from their vacation with a Santa Cruz sweatshirt (our local uniform!). Check ''Weather Underground" website for Santa Cruz weather while planning your trip.
