Monterey on the Central Coast | Inside the Monterey Bay Aquarium |
Monterey clings to the Pacific Coast enjoying a moderate climate. Once the home of the canneries immortalized by John Steinbeck, this quiet town is now more known for its thriving tourist trade. It is home to the exquisite Monterey Bay Aquarium. The bay is a popular spot for scuba diving. The Monterey region is also coming into its own right as a producer of wine. Well situated, Monterey and adjacent Carmel make for a popular weekend getaway for those living in the San Francisco Bay Area. |

Love the old canneries and theater, Steve. Might head out that way this summer, I'll have to have a look. | Ewingjr98 Mon Jan 28, 2008 04:14 UTC
Nice page on the town I now call home! | Tugboatguy Sat Dec 15, 2007 00:56 UTC
Excellent tips and photos. I've gone to Monterey for nearly 40 years-The Monterey Historics at Laguna Seca, Pebble Beach Concours and, more recently the Concorso Italiano. Prettiest place on our west Coast. Doug |
