Seymour Marine Discovery Center
The Seymour Center reflects the world of the scientist. Rather than the polished, nicely finished look of most museums and aquariums, the interior portrays the labs and seawater aquaria where scientists spend their days.

Pinnacles National Monument
Spire-like rock formations 500 to 1,200 feet high, with caves and a variety of volcanic features, rise above the smooth contours of the surrounding countryside.

San Lorenzo Park
Along the Salinas River, in the foothills of the Santa Lucia Mountains, this park is as picturesque as the scenic Salinas Valley which surrounds it and is home to the Monterey County Agricultural and Rural Life Museum.

Jack's Peak Park
Spectacular views from trails that wind through skyscraping Monterey Pine forests. An abundance of trees, wildlife, native plants and a self-guided nature trail makes this the perfect destination for any nature enthusiast.

Fort Ord Recreation Area
Come and enjoy some of the last undeveloped natural, public lands on the Monterey Peninsula, located on the former Fort Ord Military Reservation.
