Highlights of Monterey
1. Unique to Monterey
Continue along the recreation trail to Fisherman’s Wharf and dip your spoon into a delicious free sample of clam chowder. Pick up souvenirs and gifts such as salt-water taffy and jewelry. This is also where you’ll launch from when you book a boat tour, whale watching cruise or fishing trip.
2. Nightlife
A night out on the town can cap off the perfect day. The heart of Monterey’s nightlife can be found on lively Alvarado Street and Cannery Row, where 13 walkable city blocks play host to more than 20 bars featuring live music, DJs, dancing and Karaoke.
3. Historical Attractions
Monterey is quintessentially California - bursting with natural beauty and a temperate year-round climate. As the first capital of Alta California, it is also known for its commitment to the preservation of history, culture and the natural environment.
