Sheer cliffs overlooking the ocean, a charming downtown, fantastic neighborhoods filled with elegant architecture, historic sites, tourist destinations -- there's no place quite like Monterey, and if you have the chance to move to this coastal California landmark, get ready for a fun-filled adventure!
Curved along Monterey Bay, this is the location of Cannery Row (made famous by the John Steinbeck novel), the stunning Monterey Bay Aquarium, the Monterey Zoo, Fishermans Wharf, Monterey State Historic Park, and Point Pinos Lighthouse -- the oldest lighthouse on the West Coast. This is also the location of the world-famous Pebble Beach Golf Club, California State University-Monterey Bay, and Fort Ord Dunes State Park (a gorgeous stretch of beach and bluffs with fantastic views).
