Adventure Sports Unlimited — Attraction in Santa Cruz

Our 3 year old was really excited to take his second round of swim lessons. His first was at Sea Horse and they were great. Unfortunately, they weren't available during the hours we needed so we hit up a google search.

Love the shop and took more advanced classes...
