Old Fisherman's Wharf, Monterey CA

>> Tuesday, September 13, 2011

Old Fisherman's Wharf on Del Monte Ave is town's one of main attractions. 
It's only 5 minutes drive from where we live.
This wharf is a walking distance from the downtown area and to
the world famous Monterey Bay Aquarium.
Aquarium is another place yet to visit.


The pink lighthouse building is a gift shop.

The famous Old Fisherman's Grotto restaurant.
There are many other seafood restaurants lined up on this wharf offering free samples of clam chowder. Monterey is also known for this fabulous clam chowder.
Did I try it? No, not yet!
But I'm going to when the pressure of high calorie does not bother me.

Monterey Peninsula has its own uique weather pattern.
I have not lived here long enough to describe its pattern throughout the year.
But so far, I've seen many overcast days than usual sunny bright hot summer days.
While the rest of the nation was boiling with heat, we had cool days.
Depending on when you visit here, your picture taking can be a futile effort due to foggy weather.
Still there are enough surprises with beautiful sunny days that bring out the most gorgeous true hues of the ocean.
