While some piers along the California coast have characteristics which help define and give identity to the pier, here it is the area itself that makes the pier special. Supposedly the oldest seaside resort along the Pacific coast, Capitola, since 1869, has been a destination for inlanders headed to the coast.

Here, a fine mist envelops the pier at sunrise creating a peaceful glow.
