If you're planning a family trip to the California Central Coast than it's likely you already know about the many exciting things there are to do, especially in the city of Monterey. There's fun for the whole family (and who doesn't want to have fun, right?). There are so many fun-filled family activities to choose from and lots of beautiful sites to see in this charming waterfront community. If you're an active family, there are plenty of activities that will literally keep your family busy for hours. If you're a beach bum (like myself), there's literally no better place to go on the California Central Coast. If you're into aquatic life, then you'll definitely want to check out the Monterey Bay Aquarium, this place is SO amazing and the kids will absolutely love it! Also, don't forget to check out Cannery Row — you never know what goodies you might find in this beautiful historic waterfront shopping district. Unique treasures, maybe? And, don't forget to check out the Dennis the Menace Park. Fun! Fun! Fun!

ReplyDeleteHa!!
ReplyDeleteI grew up in monterey!! Cant tell you how many times i went to the aquarium....
Next time be sure to go kyaking on the bay- and avoid any restaurnats on cannery row! They are all expensive terrible tourist traps- nearby are better choices for thai, mexican or indian
