McAbee Beach - Monterey (CA)

5 /5 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).

4 /5 Michael McRoberts: Interesting little beach located off the main Cannery Row. Beach is accessible via a disable access walkway from the main road. Interesting historical significance of the beach, I included a couple of the signs in my photos. Worth checking out if your in the area.

5 /5 David Hasan: McAbee Beach is located near the Monterey Aquarium and Monterey Downtown, which I love to visit on weekends. Visitors can use the free tourist bus to explore the Downtown area. Additionally, there are plenty of shopping and small business stores on Cannery Row street, making it a convenient and walkable area. If youre planning to visit the Monterey Aquarium, I highly recommend checking out this beautiful beach too!

5 /5 TheBayArea831: Nice lil beach. Clean and was not very busy on Thursday afternoon.

5 /5 Ashley Rodriguez: Beautiful small beach to sit at. Its right below a restaurant window so it can be awkward considering you are their view. The waves are small but they are strong enough to pull a young child out, so I wouldnt recommend taking children here
