Kiva
If you haven't been and are not body shy, check this place out. They have large hot tubs outside in a somewhat Japanese style garden. There is a lovely and relaxing wooden sauna and a cold tub if you are feeling adventurous. Kiva has a no clothing policy. They also offer massage sessions.
 
Well Within
Well Within offers spa rooms for soaks and saunas, massage, shiatsu, facials, body polishes, salt scrubs, body wraps, foot treatments, and a variety of packages provided by a staff of highly trained, certified therapists. Spa products and gifts are also available.
 
Moon Rocks
One of the best secrets in Santa Cruz. (Actually Boony Doon) This is an area of incredible rock formations and incredible 360 views of the trees and the ocean. The rocks are etched with carved graffiti, but interesting sculpture and poems as well. Come here on a full moon, for the rocks will glow in a magical brilliance.
 
Fall Creek
A favorite among locals, this is a beautiful loop hike along a creek in a shadey redwood valley. Get a bit of history too, when you stop to check out the historic limekilm site.
