Monterey and Pacific Grove are a model for how the waterfronts should be. Excellent paths, lots of places to park along the route and free of debris. We've been coming here for 50 years, it's breathtaking any time of year.
Lots of walking, biking and running trails and absolutely spectacular views of the waves crashing against the rocky shore. Stunning!
if you love the outdoors and the sea, this is the area for you! Kayak rentals, scuba diving, whale watching tours, sea lions and sea otters and dolphins playing in the water….whether you like to get in the water, on the water or just watch everything from dry land, this is the nature lovers perfect location!
You can drive or walk the waterfront. Either provides a spectacular experience. There are walking trails to let you explore more closely. The scenery is spectacular and beautiful. Lots of wildlife to enjoy along with sounds and smells to awaken your senses.
Love the views, from the beach also of the marina area. Fisherman's Wharf is great. Ocean wildlife great fun to watch.
Saturday October 25th started out with a serious rain storm, but by the time we got up and going, it started to clear up a bit. we debated whether we should head for the beach, cause we thought might be pretty soggy to walk on the sand, but not at all. and when the sun came out, it looked like there were diamonds dancing on the surface of the water. what a sight!
looks of great food FISH , SHEL FISH great views too watch the sea life. I like the Clam chowder tasting as I walk the wharf... great experience
Love, love, love this place to walk, sit or just be. Seals and otters, plus many birds visible from the waterfront. Also enjoyed watching the kayakers, boats and divers. Fun place to people watch, too.
Be sure to walk the beaches. Enjoy the waves crashing, the brisk water, the ocean spray, the cool sand....
Walk the bay, down town and on Cannery row. Drive north from Cannery row along the ocean to the 17 mile drive. Stop often to see the bay and beaches.
