The kids will sleep soundly after having fun in the sun at Cowells Beach. Hunt for fish and other marine life, dip a toe in the water or maybe even fly a kite!
This stretch of coastline is free to visit, so you can have a good time without reaching for your wallet. However, Cowells Beach isn't the only worthwhile sight in and around the picturesque neighborhood of Westside Santa Cruz. With Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Mystery Spot and Natural Bridges State Park within reach, you may be tempted to stay a little longer.
