Beach homes have always been sought after here in Aptos, but Santa Cruz has always been know as a beach town,and surf town.  Santa Cruz, California -  has been recently voted to be one of the top ten surf best towns in world. Santa Cruz hugs the northern shore of Monterey Bay—a national marine sanctuary—and nothing but open coast runs to the north and south. It is the epicenter of the true California beach lifestyle, with truly amazing and colorful eclectic crowd of pleasures, best of what just anyone just could imagine. The natural beauty bring windsurfers, mountain bikers, hikers and surfers all alike to Santa Cruz County. While you could have come here to buy  Santa Cruz beach home for you and your family, there are so many things to do, besides hanging out at the beach. The more time you spend away from this marvelous place, the more you realize how beautiful it is.

Predawn long boarding, midday burritos at Taqueria Vallarta, single track mountain biking at Wilder, afternoon kite boarding at Waddell, and fine local wines—it all goes down in a spectacular natural setting and is all within easy driving from anywhere in Santa Cruz County. From Aptos beach homes that overlook the ocean, this paradise  has a  far away feel from the city streets and  high-paying jobs of Silicon Valley. And that has a lot to do with how set apart Santa Cruz can feel: old-time hippie culture, complete with dread locked street urchins and lots of wheat grass, blending with the Volvos and BMWs of the high-tech crowd.

For the young generation there is also gorgeous possibilities to have a healthy and sporty life as they study their way through the University of California at Santa Cruz. Perhaps the most important reason to get a property in Aptos,is that the Santa Cruz area has so many great things together in a place with 29 miles of beaches, 14 state parks, a surrounding greenbelt of organic farms and numerous award winning wineries, and good Mediterranean weather.
