## Where to stay in Bananna Belt

Find the best Bananna Belt areas for the activities you enjoy most. 

- Westside Santa Cruz
- Eastside Santa Cruz
- Pleasure Point
- Downtown Santa Cruz
- Beach Hill - Beach Flats

![This is a small state park at the northern end of Santa Cruz' scenic West Cliff Drive and a little over a mile from the Boardwalk, wharf and Main Beach.  A couple of times a year you can see Monarch butterflies during their migration. They are not in the numbers of years past, but you'll still see some.

If you walk north towards the rocks during low tide you will find some amazing tidepools full of sea anenomes, sea urchins, starfish, crabs, hermit crabs, and all sorts of marine life. The tidepools are on a ledge, so the tide needs to be quite high (>4 ft?) to reach them.

The beach is absolutely stunning at sunset.
