Lots of fun, and a good place to spend some time for both nearby locals and tourists alike!!
Me and my honey travel to Santa Cruz pretty frequently, and in doing so we're presented with a lot of options of coming to the boardwalk during the season. A word of advice: if you're in a similar boat, definitely get the season pass. It's $100 and when rides cost anywhere from 2-10 tickets per single ride, it becomes well worth it. Especially when an unlimited day wristband is just half the price! It'll pay for itself in no time.
Not a ton of rides or shops but definitely a fun afternoon. Do not be fooled by the oldest roller coaster. It is an insanely fun & thrilling ride. Lines weren’t too terrible but going earlier in the day is smart. The beach is beautiful & a nice spot to have lunch.
I loved this place! It has good vibes. Beach and rides I like both! Boardwalk has a lot of food options too. The restrooms were clean when I visited. Long lines for some rides though (not too bad). I went in the afternoon so there were many parking spots right in front of the boardwalk. I would love to visit this place in the evening some day with lights!
So much to do here that it's easily your full day. Large adjacent parking lot has one fee for the full day too. Wristbands are a good deal if your kids like rides, as there are plenty. Catch some shade indoors at the arcade or mini golfing. Take a break down on the beach and find a crab if you're lucky. Bring sunscreen and wear your suit if planning to swim as we didn't see places to change. They do have lifeguards. Food is pricey but lots of options. The spiral potatoes on a stick were our favorite. Always a fun summer getaway!
Love this place - so many memories of hanging with great friends, time of laughter, and freaking out with the heights on some of these rides. I know this isn’t magic mountain six flags but still it’s fun to have an option to spend a whole day with rides, fair food, beers, and who doesn’t like a chocolate dipped cone to end the day. The parking is $25 for the entire day - if you can find a meter parking you can scan the code and pay as you go which is better. Many shops and the wharf is not far to walk to if you want more options for food.
Was in the area and saw the parking lot was empty which never happens so I pulled in thinking the boardwalk must be closed... The rides are not open yet but the arcade and some of the things there are open and I will say it was so nice to be able to enjoy it without the crazy crowds and the beach was absolutely gorgeous today. Try and take advantage before we hit summer.
Fingers crossed they're going to be able to have the concerts and movies at the beach again this year
Always a fun, yet interesting time when we go to the boardwalk. The weather was perfect. We rode the train in and spent the day walking around (people watching). There is ALWAYS something fun to do. Eat, ride rides, bask in the sun on the beach.........something for everyone!
A great place of fun for kids and adults alike. So many rides to choose from. Good variety of food and desserts.
The beach is clean and beautiful. You can easily spend a full day here. The parking is right in front of the entrance for $2.5/hr and public parking for full days too.
