**UN/LOCODE:** US SRU

**GPS:** 36.9667, -122.0167

Pleasure sailboats, charter yachts and a working fishing fleet share the basin at Santa Cruz on the northern edge of Monterey Bay, California. The harbour offers roughly a thousand berths and off-loading facilities for nearly 200 commercial fishing vessels, but it has no container, breakbulk or dry-bulk cargo terminals. The historic Santa Cruz Wharf, opened in 1914, now serves tourism and fishing rather than freight. For forwarders the port is of limited cargo relevance: containerised and conventional ocean freight for the Santa Cruz area moves through the Port of Oakland, about 120 km to the north.
