The transport system is good, with a cheap city bike system, good bus system for island travel and ferries for inter-island travel. Each island is a bit different in climate and culture so go and see a few. I especially liked the hiking in different micro-climates. For

Other parts of the Island felt more resort-like and it wasn't so easy to get to places outside of Santa Cruz without a car.
