Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf

Fodor's Review:

Jutting half a mile into the ocean near one end of the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf is topped with seafood restaurants; souvenir shops; and outfitters offering bay cruises, fishing trips, and boat rentals. A salty sound track drifts up from under the wharf, where barking sea lions lounge in heaps on crossbeams.
