Beach RV Pleasure Point
Campground in Santa Cruz, CA • 16 RV Sites
Tucked between Rodeo Creek and Corcoran Lagoon at 2505 Portola Drive on the East Side of Santa Cruz, Beach RV Pleasure Point is a boutique, 16-site RV park that puts the most famous surf breaks in the Santa Cruz area—Pleasure Point's The Hook, The Point, and 38th Avenue—literally steps from your door, with the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk 10 minutes away and the redwood forests of the Santa Cruz Mountains providing the afternoon cooling that makes this stretch of the Central California coast one of the most livable outdoor environments in the state. Locally owned and operated with attention to site quality and guest service that a 16-site property can provide in ways that larger parks cannot, Pleasure Point has developed a following among serious surfers, Santa Cruz regulars, and travelers who have learned that the East Side's residential beach character rewards camping at a scale the city's more commercial campgrounds cannot replicate. All 16 sites provide full hookups with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer service, accommodating rigs from 25 to 60 feet in length. Complimentary WiFi supports remote work for guests staying during the week, and clean bathroom and shower facilities with strong hot water and pressure serve all site types. A communal fire pit creates the evening gathering space that beach camping naturally generates, and the on-site dog park accommodates the traveling pets that make so many RV journeys genuine family affairs. Online check-in streamlines the arrival process, and the locally owned operation's personal service creates the kind of direct guest communication that matters when you're navigating a small coastal city with a specific activity agenda. Pleasure Point is Santa Cruz's quintessential East Side surf neighborhood—a stretch of Portola Drive between the Capitola border and the city center lined with surf shops, coffee roasters, fish tacos, and the street-level culture that develops when a community genuinely organizes itself around surfing as a way of life. The breaks at Pleasure Point have been producing world-class waves since the 1960s, and The Hook remains one of the most reliable right-hand point breaks in Northern California—accessible on foot from the campground for guests who surf and worth watching for those who don't. The Esplanade along East Cliff Drive provides the cycling, running, and walking route that connects Pleasure Point to the Boardwalk and Seabright Beach. The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk—California's oldest surviving amusement park, operating since 1907—anchors the beach scene at the Municipal Wharf with classic rides including the Giant Dipper wooden roller coaster, a National Historic Landmark, and the Looff carousel. The natural bridges and tide pools of Natural Bridges State Beach, Wilder Ranch State Park's coastal prairie and redwood canyon trails, and the Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park's old-growth grove in the San Lorenzo River canyon provide the natural recreation counterpoints to the surf culture and boardwalk experience. Capitola Village, adjacent to the east, adds its own beach-town charm with independent restaurants and the colorfully painted cottages along Capitola Beach. Beach RV Pleasure Point operates year-round in Santa Cruz's mild, fog-influenced coastal climate, where summer temperatures hover in the 60s and early 70s and winter rarely drops below 45°F. The fog that cools the summer afternoons burns off quickly on many mornings, leaving the kind of clean Central Coast light that makes the surfing, cycling, and tide-pooling that define a Santa Cruz stay consistently rewarding. Advance reservations are essential for weekend and summer stays in a 16-site park with a loyal repeat guest base. Book your site at Beach RV Pleasure Point and spend your mornings checking the surf report and your afternoons on the East Side in one of California's great coastal communities.
