Natural Bridges State Beach & Monarch Migration in Santa Cruz, CA

Natural Bridges State Beach & Monarch Migration in Santa Cruz, CA
When researching what to do during my recent visit in/around Santa Cruz California, I was so excited to learn the monarch butterflies start their migration back to California in mid-October. Monarch butterflies overwinter in California and they make the eucalyptus grove in Natural Bridges State Beach their winter home!
Natural Bridges State Beach is located at 2531 W Cliff Dr, Santa Cruz, CA 95060.

That is so cool that you got to see the monarch butterflies after all. It was fascinating to learn a bit about them and their migration patterns. Natural Bridges State Park looks like a great park. Thanks for sharing this interesting phenomenon with us!

Really cool that were were able to see the butterflies. I find that multi-generation migration fascinating. That coast area looks amazing too. We will have to add this to our list.

I just saw an article about this and found your video. Thanks for making the video!

Great timing! I really enjoyed learning about this!

Thanks for sharing. We normally avoid California like the plague so without you video there is a darn good chance we would never see that area.

I can't imagine being there at max occupancy during the migration. But I would never want to be a butterfly. Too much flapping to go back and forth! (That and I'm allergic to eucalyptus 🤣🤣)

[@SwiftyTravels]

Oh no! Allergic to Eucalyptus!! This is not the place for you!! 😂 I would love to go back later in the season on a sunny day! 🦋
