Boardwalk Rides are open! Buy your Ride Wristband online in advance, and save up to $20 per person! The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is recognized as the best seaside park in the world. Our vibrant, bustling amusement park is renowned for its great rides, remarkable history, spectacular beach setting, and friendly attitude. The Boardwalk has been operating since 1907, and it hasn't missed a beat! We believe in affordable family fun - that's why admission is free, summer entertainment is included, and ride tickets are affordable. Two of our rides are National Historic Landmarks, but don't let that fool you. The 1924 Giant Dipper wooden roller coaster still thrills riders with its hair-raising dips and turns and the Looff Carousel's unique ring toss provides a surprising challenge. Our indoor arcades offer the largest selection of games in Northern California with the latest video and redemption games, pinball machines, a vintage game collection, a two-story miniature golf course, and a laser tag arena.

The rides are open every day, including weekends unless there is inclement weather, but this may not be true during thw winter, so check their website. Weather in February in California is generally cool and rainy, especially by the ocean, so if the Boardwalk chooses to be closed due to bad weather, it should be identified on their website.
When you buy a wristband from Santa Cruz, how much will it cost and how many rides will you get to ride on. Also how many times can you ride the same ride? Please help me!!!
A:
I cant remember what the cost was but it will give you unlimited rides on all rides the entire time you are there.
