Monterey, California
The City of Monterey in Monterey County is located on the southern edge of Monterey Bay, on Central California's Pacific coast. It stands at an elevation of 26 feet (8 m) above sea level,[2] on a land area of 8.466 sq mi (21.927 km²). The 2010 census recorded a population of 27,810.
Monterey was the capital of Alta California under both Spain and Mexico. It was the only port of entry for taxable goods in California. In 1846 the U.S. flag was raised over the Customs House, and California became part of the United States after the ensuing Mexican-American War.
The city had California's first theatre, public building, public library, publicly funded school, printing press, and newspaper. The city and surrounding area have attracted artists since the late 19th century and many celebrated painters and writers have lived there. Until the 1950s, there was an abundant fishery.
Among Monterey's notable present-day attractions are the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf and the annual Monterey Jazz Festival.

Monterey Travel Guide | California Travel Tips
California travel expert Veronica Hill shares her Monterey Travel Guide in this episode of California Travel Tips.
Located two hours south of San Francisco and 5 1/2 hours north of LA, Monterey retains the charm of a small town while boasting some of the best dining, shops and attractions on the Central Coast.
Cannery Row, immortalized in the 1945 John Steinbeck novel, is one of Monterey's top attractions. Today, Cannery Row's sardine factories are now home to quirky shops, chain restaurants and posh hotels. Monterey Bay Aquarium, housed in historic Hovden Cannery, is a must-see attraction. A downstairs exhibit displays Steinbeck memorabilia and vintage sardine machinery.
For a fun day out with the kids, check out Old Fisherman's Wharf, originally built in 1846. It's a typical bustling pier, with million-dollar Monterey boats, fresh seafood, candy shops and amusements.
We stopped for lunch at Old Fisherman's Grotto, known for its fresh cracked crab and the best clam chowder in Monterey. I have to say, it lived up to its reputation.
For a great locals-style breakfast, pop in to Old Monterey Cafe on Alvarado Street.
Next, rent a surrey from Bay Bikes and explore Monterey State Historic Park, just a few blocks up the street. You'll find some of the best preserved adobes in California here, including Custom House, built by Mexico in 1827 for sea trading, and California's First Theatre, built in 1846 as entertainment for local sailors. California's first state constitution was drafted at Colton Hall in 1849.
When booking Monterey hotels, plan well in advance. The town books up quickly in September during the Monterey Jazz Festival and in June during the Monterey Blues Festival.
Looking out at the pristine protected waters of Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, it's easy to fall in love with this stunning coastal getaway.
With so much to do and see, Monterey is one of the best beach vacations in California.

Monterey's Cannery Row & Aquarium
Cannery Row was once a bustling row of sardine canneries during Monterey's famed industrial heyday. It is now a tourist attraction with many restaurants and hotels, many of which are located in former cannery buildings, and a few historical attractions. One of the biggest draws to the Row is the world-famous Monterey Bay Aquarium. The street was once named Ocean View Avenue until John Steinbeck made the street famous in his classic novel Cannery Row. The City designated the street Cannery Row in his honor, in 1958. Many sites from his novel still dot the street alongside our many shops, restaurants and hotels.

Adventure to Pebble Beach !! ( Monterey Ca )
This was a spontaneous adventure to Pebble Beach. Its located in Monterey California( around 120 miles away from San Francisco/ 180 miles away from Santa Rosa - where I picked up my friends ) . Cost around 20 dollars to get in- and Honestly the beach is magnificent. We went during the aftermath of the paradise fires so that is why the sky is super smoky.
This adventure was so much fun to film and make so hopefully you enjoy it.

Carmel, Pacific Grove and the Monterey Peninsula
A glorious meeting of land, sea and sky, the Monterey Peninsula comprises the cities of Monterey, Carmel-by-the-Sea, and Pacific Grove. The largest natural Monterey Pine forest in the world is located here, called the Del Monte Forest. The best viewing of the forest is along the 17 mile drive.
Monterey served as the capital of upper Las Californias and Alta California from 1777 to 1848, under the flags of Spain, independent Mexico, and the United States as a territory. The city was originally the only port of entry for taxable goods in California. Pacific Grove, like Carmel-by-the-Sea and Monterey, became an artists' haven in the 1890s.
