aptos

Aptos is a charming little town south of Santa Cruz, but don’t let its size deceive you – it’s absolutely packed with things to do. Beyond the beautiful beaches and natural scenery, Aptos contains the massive Forest of Nisene Marks State Park, the only community college in all of Santa Cruz County, a fantastic farmers market, and plenty of great events throughout the year. Though the area has recently been developed, the homes still have a cozy, small coastal town vibe that perfectly complements the community, and the natural beauty is stunning.
