Watch the sea otters play in the water at the Monterey Bay Aquarium and read Steinback’s Cannery Row while enjoying a bowl of Clam Chowder soup.

There are always new reasons to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium—special events like our “Oceans 2006: Year of Exploring,” exciting exhibits, new animals and family activities. Discover why we’re recognized as the nation’s finest aquarium and No. 3 top-rated family attraction in the United States.*

We’re located on Monterey’s historic Cannery Row, right on the edge of beautiful Monterey Bay and just minutes from Carmel and Pebble Beach. With each visit, you’ll find something new—and your visit supports our efforts to inspire conservation of the oceans.
