If you are in the mood for seafood, this little gem is one local favorite you don’t want to miss. Only about a 5 minute drive to Del Monte Ave., but go early, as the line is typically out the door!

Sightseeing

If you are looking for easy hikes (or a few moderate ones) and absolutely stunning views, this is your place! It’s even great for kiddos- there is a whaling museum for a little history lesson. If you park along the 1 outside the preserve, you can walk in for free, otherwise there is a small fee for parking inside.

There are plenty of gorgeous places to go wine tasting in Carmel Valley, but this one is our favorite! Great vibe, the small plates are fabulous, and they often have mini concerts on the weekend. If you have kids with you, they will enjoy the yard games such as giant tic-tax-toe, cornhole, etc.

This is a beautiful place for a picnic or to bring the kids to hunt hermit crabs!

What is not to love about this world-renowned aquarium? There are so many fascinating exhibits, some in which you can actually touch sea creatures! Penguins, sharks, jellyfish- we’ve got them all! The cafe has great menu items, even some organic, but you also have the option to check out places in cannery row and come back after lunch.
