About

Escolona

Escolona, located between the San Lorenzo River and the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, is a residential and coastal Santa Cruz neighborhood with river-adjacent paths and a beach-town street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Laurel St and Pacific Ave corridor, where coffee counters, indie boutiques, and late-night bites keep the sidewalks active. Housing leans to classic beach cottages and compact bungalows, with pockets of small apartment buildings near busier streets. The river levee and nearby beaches shape daily routines with walking and cycling routes. Downtown’s arts calendar and live-music nights spill outward without changing the area’s low-key feel. Local staples such as The Catalyst, Bookshop Santa Cruz, and Abbott Square Market act as cultural anchors.
