Aptos is a charming coastal community located in Santa Cruz County, California. Situated along the northern edge of Monterey Bay, this unincorporated area combines seaside living with rich local history. The name "Aptos" comes from the Ohlone Native American word meaning "the meeting of two creeks."

The area features the historic Aptos Village, which grew around the terminus of the Loma Prieta Lumber Company's railroad in the late 1800s. Today, Aptos is known for its beautiful beaches, including Seacliff State Beach with its concrete ship pier, and the Forest of Nisene Marks State Park, which preserves the cultural and natural history of the region's logging era.

The community maintains a strong connection to both its maritime heritage and its role in California's lumber industry history, while supporting a vibrant local arts and cultural scene.
