Que faire à Monterey

Monterey Essentials

Monterey features the world-renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium, housed in a former sardine cannery, and the historic Colton Hall, where California's first constitution was drafted in 1849. The waterfront includes Old Fisherman's Wharf and Cannery Row, offering access to whale-watching tours and sea otter viewing points. Historic sites like the Presidio and Monterey State Historic Park showcase Spanish-era adobes and gardens, while the coast provides sandy stretches for kayaking and recreation at Monterey State Beach.
