You can only surf for so long, then you'll be interested in doing other things around Santa Cruz. The Shakespeare Santa Cruz is a world famous. There's lots of local beach related events coming up this year.The Cruzio ISP maintains a comprehensive list of Local Events for Santa Cruz. One of my favorite clubs, is the Kuumbwa Jazz Center, especially the Monday night jazz shows. After surfing, you might enjoy visiting the beach boardwalk or the Santa Cruz Wharf, both located next to Cowells Beach. Creation Captured has some Woody Woodworth photographs and movies that are fun to watch, and are available to purchase for commercial use.

The (Santa Cruz County Visitors Council) has lots of information about Santa Cruz. Their info includes maps, things to do, lodging search enginens, etc. This is a great place to plan a long weekend or a whole vacation.
