From the seaside vistas of Capitola to the small-town appeal of nearby Soquel, this cozy region just minutes south of Santa Cruz is reminiscent of another time in history. Founded in 1869, Capitola is California's oldest seaside resort town and still exudes its quintessential beach charm, with salt water taffy, sandcastles and colorful beach bungalows. The 150-year-old town of Soquel lies just inland from Capitola. Within just a few blocks of this tranquil town, you'll find antique dealers, scenic two-lane roads and family-operated wineries.
