Santa Cruz Surfing Museum

Went here and witnessed a hoard of aggressive locals surrounding a vehicle and threatening to kill a visitor over a parking spot that they clearly felt entitled to. The dispute ended with the locals screaming at tourists to "go back to where they came from" and the one visitor frantically escaping. I couldn't stick around the museum itself because a vagabond who appeared to be on drugs played the drums--poorly--from inside his van, and I found that annoying

The coast itself is beautiful but the atmosphere feels unsafe and there's clearly some tensions going on where visitors aren't welcome. the seaside walk is nice but this museum itself is small. It's mostly just a point where a bunch of tourists who seemed lost and bored stared over a fence at a bunch of surfers in the water below.
