A long stretch of virgin sand with plenty of peaks to keep the average surfer satisfied. The breaks in front of the village tend to become busy in the summer, but park your car, walk 1km north or south and you`ll find empty waves waiting for you. Santa Cruz is wind exposed which can spoil the clean fun for surfers, but does turn the ocean into a wind & kite playground!
