The quaint town of Aptos is in an unincorporated area of Santa Cruz County that includes Rio Del Mar, Seacliff, and Seascape areas.  It is also the home of historic Aptos Village, and the gateway to the Forest of Nisene Marks State Park. Hikers, runners and mountain bikers enjoy the 30 miles of trails where remnants of mill sites and trestles still exist.  The park, covering 10,000 acres and once clear-cut by loggers, is a testament to forest regeneration where second-growth redwoods coexist with new foliage.  Traces of the once-bustling railroad and logging industry can still be found. For more history, the Aptos History Museum houses a collection of artifacts and photographs tracing the history from native Ohlone Indians who named the area to the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.
