Why Live in Rio del Mar

Rio Del Mar, a coastal neighborhood in Aptos, California, offers residents the unique experience of living between the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Cruz Mountains' redwood forests. The area is known for its scenic beauty, with Rio Del Mar State Beach providing a popular spot for swimming, fishing, and beach walks. Hidden Beach Park, accessible via a secluded path, offers a more private beach experience. The nearby Seascape Golf Club and The Forest of Nisene Marks State Park add to the list of things to do, catering to both golf enthusiasts and nature lovers. Homes in Rio Del Mar are primarily midcentury structures that have been updated over the years, ranging from smaller beach homes to larger luxury properties with ocean views. The neighborhood's small commercial plaza features dining options like Venus Pie Trap and Venus Spirits Cocktails & Kitchen, while nearby Seacliff offers additional local favorites. Students attend highly rated schools, including Rio Del Mar Elementary School and Aptos High School. Despite its picturesque setting, the neighborhood faces practical challenges such as heavy traffic on State Route 1 during rush hours and an increased risk of flooding due to its ocean proximity. Health care needs are met by nearby medical centers and Watsonville Community Hospital, located about 8 miles away.
