Booths Cannery Beach - Monterey (CA)

Mg 0 If only for its historic implications and significance, this adorable structure is worth viewing. You can look in through the windows and see the replica of a theatre bar and seating, and look at the outside and in the back garden, and get an idea of the size of the area’s population 150 years ago. I wonder what plays they performed !

Gina Hinds, Realtor There is no better place for a relaxing picnic after you’ve ordered your sandwich from Troias across the street. Enjoy a leisure walk in the front with its beautiful gardens!

Uday Ramesh I visited recently and loved the long stretch of soft sand, clean surroundings, and gentle waves. Its a great beach for families, couples, or anyone looking to relax and enjoy nature. The water was clear, and the view of the ocean was just stunning. Many people were enjoying the waves, flying kites, or just laying under beach tents. The nearby boardwalk and marina filled with boats added charm to the scenery and made it feel vibrant. It’s less crowded than some other Monterey beaches, which makes it perfect for a quiet picnic, beach walk, or even photography. There are restrooms and parking nearby, which adds to the convenience. Overall, it’s a must-visit if youre in the Monterey area — relaxing, scenic, and perfect for making beach day memories.

B Matt In a town famous for its butterflies, it makes sense that they’d have a statue of one. This was a pretty nice tribute to the local bug.

Radka Prokopova I could sit here for hours and hours — such a beautiful place. Paid parking is available right by the beach, and there’s a freely accessible restroom.

Nicholas Shake McAbee Beach is a nice little beach in Cannery Row thats main purpose is for tourists to be able to take a short walk down the beach without all the hassle of a traditional sized beach. Im sure it has some historic reason for being there and having it stay the way it was since back in the day, but it serves its purpose well. No waves and a safe place to put your feet in the water without getting swept away. Sometimes there are little seashells and sometimes there are other cool things that washup on shore. This is the same beach where John Denver crashed his plane in 1997 just a little south of this beach (if you dont know who John Denver is, your parents are terrible people).

Prosun Roy One of the better known and sought after Vista Points on the 17 Miles Drive. Ample Parking, good Restrooms available. Nice Pathway with benches at regular interval. Best part is the panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean and mini rocky island, not far off the coast, teaming with Birds (mostly Brown Pelicans, Brandts Cormorants, Western Gulls), Harbor seals and California sea lions.

Terrie Snell This place is Amazing!! It is absolutely beautiful. It is so neat and clean. The exhibits are very impressive. The vibrant colors of some are awe-inspiring. There is definitely plenty to see and do. All of the children that I observed seemed to be really enjoying themselves. I definitely will be back!

Alexey Anoshko A good moment to the memory of divers

Victor Torres Very good distraction to feel the purity of nature, very good for the whole family
