Okay, let’s talk about Capitola's Venetian Court—the ultimate “wait, are we in Italy or California?” moment you didn’t know you needed. Nestled right on the golden sands of Capitola Beach at 1500 Wharf Rd, CA 95010, this pastel-colored wonderland is like something straight out of a dream. 

With its candy-hued buildings, beachy vibes, and killer oceanfront views, it's no surprise that people lose their minds over it on Instagram. Seriously—this is California’s oldest seaside resort and still one of its most charming hidden gems!
