Why We Love Capitola-by-the-Sea
Located just 35 miles southwest of San Jose and less than two hours drive from San Francisco, “Camp Capitola” began as a popular beachfront tourist destination. Today the City maintains those roots and has added a vibrant commercial district and several distinct residential neighborhoods. Nearly 10,000 people call Capitola home, and countless more visit to enjoy its natural beauty and other attractions. Capitola's beach is embraced between two cliffs in a river valley. The Esplanade is a wonderful stroll in the village of Capitola, along a row of restaurants, historic homes, and small shops passing by the vistas of Monterey Bay and the beach. In September, the Esplanade hosts the Capitola Art & Wine Festival.
