Event comments
This favorite walk meanders through beautiful ocean front residential areas. Discover garden paths through "Little Venice" and its brightly painted beach rentals. Then climb up the cliff side stairs for breathtaking views of the ocean as you continue through Secret Paths and Stairways around this lovely quaint tourist town of Capitola. The views at the top of the stairs are worth the effort! At the start be sure to try their coffee - it is brewed to order!
