Capitola by the Sea

The colorful Esplanade’s boutiques, restaurants, inns, and bars are jumping most nights of the week.

Welcome to Capitola by the Sea

 
Capitola is part Mediterranean fantasy, a part quaint slice of Americana. From its Jewel Box neighborhood to the bay vistas of Depot Hill, Capitola is unfailingly picturesque. Like a Hollywood starlet, the town doesn’t seem to have a bad side and is always having fun. The colorful Esplanade’s boutiques, restaurants, inns, and bars are jumping most nights of the week. And, annual events like The Capitola Art & Wine Festival and the Wharf to Wharf run are full-blown galas at the beach. Dine at the world-famous Shadowbrook or catch a halibut from the Capitola wharf.

And if there is shopping to be done, Capitola is bordered by 41st Avenue and Soquel Avenue, commercial districts that bring a combination of quaint coastal shops, restaurants & its iconic surf shop strand to the everyday convenience of a Target, Whole Foods, and our local DMV.
