Capitola was named one of the 20 Best Small Towns by Sunset Magazine (March 2009).

The surfing images I have featured on this blog so far were all taken from Capitola.

  1. A scene like this always reminds me of California. I've been to Santa Cruz during a sidetrip from SF several years ago and I'm impressed with the community's affection for the beach. I'm sure, residents of Capitola must be doubly proud of their beach and their town now that they've made it to the list of best small towns.

  2. The water looks exciting, especially the splash on the lower left against the rocks. Such a pretty town - must be nice to own one of those homes.

  5. A fine shot of this beach scene. This place seems to have many appealing features: beach, pier, nearby commercial services, etc. Fine shot.
