The Santa Cruz Surf Museum reminds any visitor that Santa Cruz is Surf City. And the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk with its brass and wood Looff Carousel (complete with pipe organ that plays as you ride) and the tall, historic Giant Dipper is an ocean side attraction not to be missed. But Santa Cruz is more than its most famous sights. Pay a visit to the wildlife-focused Seymour Marine Discovery Center or the rich wineries in the area. Walk through the Santa Cruz Mission State Historic Park. Santa Cruz has no lack of art galleries or live theater, either.
