Santa Cruz Boondock or dry camp for a few days?

As someone mentioned, New Brighton SB is in Capitola and is only $35 a nite in the standard sites. Reservations at:

New Brighton

You can park on the street for the night and move every day in Santa Cruz, as long as it isn't posted for no overnight RVs and the neighborhood is more commercial than residential. The west side of town has some commercial parks. You may get a knock on the door in the middle of the night tho, its not against the law but ya know how that can go.

Santa Cruz County has a mandated 3% growth rate (building permits are done by lottery and limited to 3% of existing dwellings). For that reason it isn't as growth crazy as the rest of California. It is insane when it comes to liberals, radicals etc though.

I spent a lot of time in Santa Cruz in the early 1960's as a teenager. Nice marry-go-round with a brass ring dispenser. I lived in San Leandro. Moved to Idaho in 1969, I doubt I'd like the place now, but I do miss the ocean. Now I have trees and mountains and wide open spaces for my MH to go. Had a lot of fun there back then, but all just memories now.

Try New Brighton Beach. It used to be very reasonable for dry camping. It's been a while since we camped there. Good luck.

You might want to investigate Henry Cowell state park in nearby Felton. Its probably as reasonable as you are going to find.

None that I know of......That's kinda like asking if there's anywhere to boondock in Beverly Hills.....:W...that said, you might try a church or similar that has a large parking lot and ask permission to park where you wouldn't be seen. But, you'd have to be pretty covert...Dennis
