Lovely niche spot on the California coast. The beach is perfect for calm bay waders, surfing, or a sand castle. Nice public facilities coupled with cutest small town and restaurants make a great destination for the whole family.

Lovely town, parking may be difficult during holidays, but the laid-back atmosphere is perfect for walking around .

My team and I absolute love the ambiance of this beach! It is magical, especially the colorful tiny cottages. We can’t wait to come back and visit soon 👗💚

I had a blast at Capitola Beach, the atmosphere was amazing and the weather was perfect. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Will go back again soon.
