“VDUBs in the Village” is all about a chill beach-day vibe. Think laid-back hangout meets classic VW car meet. Park your VW in one of the coolest beachside locations alongside 200+ other VWs. Bring the family. Hang with friends.


Capitola Village is packed with restaurants, sweets, and shopping — all just steps from the sand.
