Santa Cruz Boardwalk

There was no thread for it, and as far as I know, this will be the first place in California to reopen their rides on the 7th of November Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk Rides

The momentum has started! Hopefully this will be a message to Newsom to let theme parks reopen.

Ohhh nice, might visit if it seems safe but its a small area so if i gets crowded you will not have any room to walk without bumpping into someone

Anyone can visit, shop, and eat there, but only locals can ride. I'm assuming they'll be asking for and ID if buying ride tickets. Just making sure you're aware and have proper expectations if you actually visit.

It's the off season, and even if there were no pandemic, the rides would've been not fully operating regardless.

You really want to go to Disneyland or Universal without indoor attractions? Even this first park to reopen, which meets all the requirements, is a long way from having CA parks back to normal or where FL’s at.

Edit: I knew Us was filmed here, but this just jumped to the top of my list after finding out The Lost Boys and Killer Klownz was also filmed here!!

I knew Us and Lost Boys were, but didn't know about Killer Klownz. Are you sure? We just saw that movie a year ago, and don't seem to recall seeing SCBB in it at all.

On a side note, the bridge they used for Lost boys wasn't the same one near SCBB. That bridge is actually somewhat near SFMM in Valencia.

I do kind of remember that scene, but I figured it was more of a green screen. Were they actually there?

And... they’re closed again :/

Not a surprise

I just hope Disney and other parks don't have to close what they have open again...what a mess that would be
