Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk

Halloween at the Boardwalk offers a lively way to celebrate the spooky season with plenty of activities to keep you entertained throughout the day. You can join trick-or-treating along the boardwalk, where kids and adults collect treats from various vendors. The costume contest is a major highlight, with winners announced across several age groups. The event runs from noon to early evening, but the fun continues well into the night with arcades open until 10 pm for those who want to stay longer. Beyond costumes and candy, the boardwalk’s festive activities create a playful vibe perfect for families and friends seeking a fun outing. Whether watching the costume contest or trying your luck at arcade games, there’s a casual energy that lets you enjoy the day at your own pace. Picking up a trick-or-treat package adds convenience and excitement, making the visit even more enjoyable for everyone involved.
