Juan Bautista De Anza Historic Trailhead, Fremont Peak State Park, Zmudowski State Beach, Moss Landing State Wildlife Area

Prunedale is a small town in between Watsonville and Salinas in which many people commute through every day. Although people only go through the highways, there are much more things to go and see if you have the day off or need some time to study. First, there is the Royal Oaks Park which has 122 acres of trails, playgrounds, basketball courts, and a great place for a barbeque on the weekend. Also, there is the Manzanita Park that is widely known for its travel softball and baseball hosting and BMX riding. Secondly, the Elkhorn Slough is great scenery for wildlife and great pictures of its 7 miles of wetlands for birds, snakes, rabbits, rare plants and most notably the southern sea otters. Finally, the Prunetree shopping center is a good place to get a bite to eat at a few restaurants or a study session at Starbucks. In conclusion, although people see Prunedale as a small town when they glimpse by it in the morning and afternoon, they should check some of these places out.
