Colorful Views in Capitola

I love this beach. It is very relaxing, and I enjoyed watching the people surfing. Many little kids here at Capitola Beach have fun with their families. The area has many nice restaurants and bars. I can enjoy meals or drinks with beautiful views. The only problem is the parking near the beach is filled up quickly on the weekends. More parking lots available with within a 10 to 15-minute walk. Street parking is also available!

Capitola Beach is a delightful coastal gem! Known for its colorful beachfront cottages and charming village vibes, it’s the perfect spot to relax and soak in the beauty of California’s coastline. The sandy beach is ideal for sunbathing, building sandcastles, or simply enjoying the gentle waves. The nearby Capitola Village adds to the joy with its boutique shops, delicious eateries, and cozy coffee spots. Whether you’re strolling along the shore, watching surfers, or catching the sunset over the ocean, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Capitola Beach is a picture-perfect destination that combines relaxation, charm, and fun. It’s a place that will leave you feeling refreshed and filled with coastal happiness!

I was at the Capitola Beach with family and Friends yesterday, 1st December, 2024. Spent 4 hours at Capitola exploring Sea Food at Paradise Grill, yummy Ice Cream at Polar Bear, walked up the Wharf to click a few pictures, got to see birds, the colourfully painted houses near the Wharf. Enjoyed the trip thoroughly. A visit to Capitola is worth your time and money

A nice place to visit if you haven't been there. But I have to say, this is the only place I have been to where a 2 hour parking can be at least $25. Way to make money. Otherwise, I wish there were more parking available at an affordable price. Weekend is the busiest.

If you want a relaxed beach atmosphere with good restaurants, shopping, and a great pier, look no further than Capitola beach!
