Provides plenty of opportunities to find that perfect Monterey postcard or souvenir (who do you know who doesn't want a plush sea otter?) You can also buy the day's latest catch fresh off the boat.

Fisherman's Wharf

Oldest government building in California and first designated California Historical Landmark. First floor is a small museum and gift shop.

Custom House

Showcases exhibits that revolve around Monterey's history as a port, and the history of both seafaring and commercial fishing, from the whaling era to the present day.

Maritime Museum of History

Don't miss the whalebone sidewalk. Whalebone was once a common material for sidewalks in seaside towns; it is very likely this is the last one of its kind.

Old Whaling Station

Shows often include local interpretations of hit musicals.
