The best time to visit Santa Cruz is between September and October, after the peak visitor season. When the number of travelers has reduced, you can enjoy the beaches and attractions much more. The period is also filled with special events and festivals like the Art & Wine Festival at Capitola, the Greek Festival, and the Film Festival. You can also visit in January and February when the monarch butterflies migrate to the Natural Bridges State Beach for the winter. Gray whales migrate from the Arctic in September to feed near California in January.
