Release and property

Bail, property, and commissary pickup

01Bail

Cash bail is at 259 Water Street — not this Rountree door

Cash bail is accepted at the Main Jail, 259 Water Street, Santa Cruz (Sheriff FAQ) — not at this Watsonville visitor door. Confirm custody on Jail Viewer or (831) 454-7873 / (831) 454-7800. Criminal Division 701 Ocean Street, Room 120, (831) 420-2200. Holds can block release. An ICE detainer alone is not a lawful California hold (Gov. Code § 7284.6).

02Property

Monday–Friday 8:00–10:30 a.m. and 1:30–3:30 p.m. — confirm lobby

County property-release window: Monday–Friday 8:00–10:30 a.m. and 1:30–3:30 p.m. with a signed form. Call (831) 454-7873 to confirm which lobby.

03After release

Jail Reception — (831) 454-7800

Replacement checks through Jail Reception. Call (831) 454-7800.

After booking

Court, a lawyer, probation, and parole.

Court, counsel, and probation are separate from the jail. State parole is a different agency. This is the process a family actually has to walk—not a directory of private bondsmen or attorneys.

01 Criminal Courthouse

701 Ocean Street, Room 120

Criminal cases filed only in Santa Cruz, not at this jail. Watsonville Courthouse accepts some payments. Portal: portal.santacruzcourt.org/portal. Clerk 8:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m. Monday–Friday. Phones 8:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m.

701 Ocean Street is court — not 90 Rountree Lane visiting.

(831) 420-2200

02 Appointed counsel

315 Main Street, Suite 204

Appear in court to determine eligibility for court-approved counsel.

Watsonville office 315 Main Street Suite 204. Santa Cruz office 420 May Avenue. Fax (831) 454-5360.

(831) 454-5300

03 County supervision

Probation is not parole

A probation hold can block release. Watsonville probation is 1430 Freedom Boulevard — not 90 Rountree Lane. Adult admin is 303 Water Street, Santa Cruz, (831) 454-2150.

Youth housing is Juvenile Hall, 3650 Graham Hill Road, Felton, (831) 454-3800.

(831) 763-8070

04 State parole, not county

Salinas parole — 320 Airport Drive

CDCR Northern Region directory (updated 9/11/2026): Salinas 320 Airport Drive, (831) 422-2043. No Santa Cruz city unit listed. State parole is not county probation. Report to the office in the release papers.

Custody information(831) 454-7873 →

Clear information.
Clear boundaries.

Jail411 is an independent information resource for families and friends. We are not a government agency, jail operator, law firm or live custody-records service.

Can Jail411 tell me if someone is in custody right now?

No. Jail411 does not hold live custody records. Use the official locator for the county, state, federal or ICE system that has the person; start here if you do not know which.

Does posting bond mean the person comes home?

Not always. A probation or parole hold, another county's warrant or an immigration detainer can keep someone in custody after bond is posted. Ask the jail what holds are on the booking before you pay.

What should I confirm before visiting?

The person's current facility, the visiting schedule, approval requirements, accepted identification and arrival instructions. Check the facility page and its official sources before you travel.

What if I find something that needs correcting?

Send us the page and the detail that needs attention. Include the official source when you have one. Do not send private booking documents or other sensitive personal information.
