We went to Monterey Bay area again on a lovely sunny day in February, Many locals were out. We enjoyed seeing different areas and for sunset, we parked by Asilomar State Beach and enjoyed the views. Its a gorgeous ocean area in California.

beautiful, relaxing time walking on the beach and watching animal life or biking along the shore. We biked 28 miles in 4 hours :) The weather is warm during day and slightly chilly during mornings and evenings. If you like playing pickleball, there are public courts to play pickleball.

Took our family of four (two teenage boys) for a day trip from Fresno area (2 1/2 hour drive). Pro tip, leave early to get there and park before 9am or it’s going to be a challenge finding a good spot (we went on a Sunday). We chose lots of 21 right in between Cannery Row and Old Fishermans Wharf. It was about $10 to park for the day. We chose to walk the Monterey Bay Coastal Trail which is a well maintained bike/run/walk path up and down the coast. Pro tip, there is a free shuttle taking you up and down the trail if you’re tired of walking. We hit up the shops, food and sea life viewing areas over a 6 hour duration. Definitely worth the trip (and beats the Fresno heat ~30 degrees cooler)! I’ll review a few of the individual locations on my profile.
