Dennis the Menace Playground

This famous Monterey playground is located in the El Estero Park. First opened in 1956, the park has undergone various renovations with the most recent in 2005. Named after the comic character by Hank Ketchum, the park features a toddler area and larger slides and structures meant for older children. A maze with a lookout tower, climbing wall, suspension bridge and statue of Dennis himself, this park is full of fun for kids of all ages.

725 Pearl Street, El Estero Park, Monterey, CA, USA, 93940
Monterey County Youth Museum

At this hands-on museum, your kids will never be scolded or reminded not to touch anything,as the Monterey County Youth Museum was designed to encourage hands-on discovery. Children can come in and explore the many exhibits including Creation Station, The Grill, and other exhibits which allow the kids to dress up, become a chef, run their own business, or get a geography lesson. This is a great place for the entire family.

Monterey Museum of Art

This museum is actually located in two different places, not too far from one another and in the oldest neighborhood of Monterey. At its primary location in an old adobe, the museum recently exhibited works in Chinese ceramics and textiles, paintings of Monterey 1910-1950, and bronzes by Charles Russell. The other location in the Civic Center (corner of Via Mirada and Fremont Street) has exhibited charcoal drawings by Tobin Keller, masks from Mexico and archaic vessels from Asia. This is one small town museum worth visiting.

The bright and airy rooms come with all the standard perks of hotels in the area: complimentary bathrobes, a patio, and in some cases, a fireplace. There is even a deck where you can catch a few rays. Or you can use the grill area for a barbecue if you wish. There are even private sauna rooms. The service is first-rate.

Monterey Bay Aquarium

Monterey Bay Aquarium is one of the best-designed aquariums in the country. A rather stand-out feature of this aquarium is the two-story tank, home to a kelp forest in which one can find sunfish, sharks, and the occasional diver tasked with squeegeeing the algae off the tank walls. Sand dabs are displayed in shelf-like tanks ideally suited to the flat fish, and a school of sardines swim in an endless circle in their cylindrical tank home. If you want to interact with some aquatic dwellers, you're invited to pet the bat rays. The jellyfish display is one of Monterey Bay Aquarium's star attractions.

Chatter Baux Children's Shoppe

This second hand children's shop is a favorite among Pacific Grove. Everyone knows, children grow like weeds, so their wardrobes need a constant update. So bring those high water pants in for consignment and pick up quality, gently used clothing to replace last years, now ill-fitting pants. The first week of the month Chatter Baux Children's Shoppe offers their special dollar days with 90-day inventory just one dollar!

Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary

Monarch Grove Sanctuary is a marvelous sight in Pacific Grove, with thousands of monarch butterflies migrating here in October every year. The butterflies mostly settle on Monterey pine trees, which give them the adequate amount of heat and light that they need. The butterflies mostly migrate from the north to avoid freezing winters, and form clusters in this sanctuary's eucalyptus trees. The sanctuary and its presence of butterflies is what lends Pacific Grove the moniker of 'Butterfly Town USA'.

Ridge Road, Between Lighthouse Avenue and Short Street, Pacific Grove, CA, USA, 93950

The rooms are simple and airy, most coming with a fireplace. The inn caters mostly to tourists in search of a pleasant stay near the water. A true haven of solitude, it overlooks the town and offers cute little porches from which to watch the seagulls hurry about. See website for up-to-date visitor information.
