Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk

For those of you who are not familiar (just like me) , Santa Cruz is known for its beach and for the Boardwalk. If you look up top things to do in the Bay Area, you are sure to see visiting the Boardwalk as probably one of the most recommended activities to do. Especially in the spring and summer time when it's bright and the water is at a good temperature. This is our first time to came across the Beach Boardwalk in California,  When driving down here, be prepared for traffic. Even though getting to Santa Cruz is relatively quick from the South Bay (it's around a 45 minute drive from San Jose), there's going to be a lot of cars when you get into the city. This is because everyone comes down here for a fun day at the beach. 

The boardwalk has a bunch of everything to offer to everyone as it's by the beach just an awesome place to chill with an amazing array of all kinds of different rides in their radical beach park!

The Boardwalk is literally a county fair that runs all year round with the added bonus of the beach. Basically, it has  roller-coasters, carnival games, a huge arcade, bowling, as well as a theater nearby too. It's the perfect day getaway with your friends or with a significant other because there's so much you can do. Because it's very popular, there are going to be a lot of people. Other than that, it's a blast if you are coming through Santa Cruz. 

They also have a bench deck open for public  along the beach providing a great view of the park and surrounding beach area.

Having never been here I wasn't exactly quite sure what to expect but what I found was a totally an awesome park right on the beach making for an amazing summer!
