Hello Ocean Lovers💕
Ready to trade the treadmill for ocean breezes? 🌊 Let’s gather for a 💚“green exercise” wellness Hike at New Don Horsley County Park at Tunitas Creek Beach Opens August 17, 2026

Hello Ocean Lovers, It's a beautiful Sunny skies day. Let's meet new friends and go for a Green Exercise Wellness Hiking at the Santa Cruz Lighthouse to Natural Bridges Beach, enjoy fresh ocean air, the Beautiful Sunset and Healing Sea for our physical health and Mental Well-being😇

Sometimes all you need is an easy stroll by the ocean to refresh your spirits. This track along the Pacific Ocean north of Santa Cruz is one of the best places in California to do just that.
You'll see gulls, geese, pelicans, and other waterfowl and you might hear the distant bark of passing sea lions. If your timing's right, you might even spot passing whales on their annual migrations.

Santa Cruz Lighthouse was home to a busy port in the mid-1800s, with ships dropping anchor in the harbor to take on loads of redwood.

Natural Bridges State Beach is a 65-acre California state park in Santa Cruz, CA. The park features a natural bridge across a section of the beach. It is also well known as a hotspot to see monarch butterfly migrations.
