The Natural Bridges State Beach is a state park, natural monument, and protected beach area in Santa Cruz, California. It is quite a popular beach park, mostly due to its stunning scenery and location.

Named after a natural bridge that serves as a popular landmark and located inside the park, the Natural Bridges State Beach is commonly described as “breathtaking”, “beautiful”, “wonderful”, “lovely”, “gorgeous”, and “amazing”. Most previous and recurring visitors will tell you how great the place is and how much you’ll enjoy picnicking, fishing, surfing, or just simply hanging out on the sandy beach. There are also tons of things to see here, including migrating whales, seals, otters, and shore birds. Tide pools also offer a glimpse of sea creatures like crabs, sea stars, and anemones just to name a few.

Be careful of the seagulls that fly around the park, though, as they can snatch away your food.
