Natural Bridges State Beach at Santa Cruz, California
Natural Bridges State Beach is renowned for its striking natural arch, the remaining piece of what was once a trio of arches carved by the relentless power of the ocean. This iconic natural bridge, juxtaposed against the backdrop of the expansive Pacific, creates a scene of unparalleled beauty. The beach is also home to tide pools teeming with marine life, sandy shores, and the Monarch Butterfly Natural Preserve, where thousands of butterflies seek refuge during the winter months.
