Monterey Quick Picks and Tips

Conventions

The Monterey Conference Center hosts major exhibitions, such as the Monterey Jazz, Pop and Blues Festivals. The Monterey Pop Festival was a precursor to Woodstock in 1967's Summer of Love.

Dining

Loulou's Griddle in the Middle starts the day off right with a fresh seafood omelet. Crepes of Brittany and Bistro Moulin specialize in French cuisine, while Montrio Bistro is known for its international fare.

Major Point of Interest

The Bruce Ariss Wharf Theater, near the Old Fisherman's Wharf, draws many performing arts patrons from Monterey with its live amateur productions.

Shopping

Cannery Row, made famous by John Steinbeck's novel of the same name, now boasts shops, cafes, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, a popular destination for travelers from hotels in Monterey. Old Monterey Farmers' Market, meanwhile, boasts fresh California produce.

Sports

The need for speed brings the U.S. Grand Prix motorcycle races to the Laguna Seca raceway each July. Other exciting sporting events include the California State Rodeo in Salinas and Ocean Speedway's dirt track racing.

Monterey hotel and travel tips from Orbitz

Cool ocean adventures at California's Monterey Bay

For a recent family vacation to Northern California's Monterey Bay, I had my heart set on the Monterey Bay Aquarium, a whale watching excursion and a jaunt to Carmel-By-The-Sea. We figured we'd beat the crowds, catch the whales, and not even notice the cool air -- after all, it would take more than a brisk ocean breeze to make these tough Chicagoans shake their boots.

California vacation: Monterey, Paso Robles wine country

Our writer says a central California vacation has plenty to offer when it comes to wine. He offers his picks for highly acclaimed Meritage, Zinfandel and more.

Smaller-city hotel options for business travel

They may not be in the heart of the action, but they aren't far and often offer better value. Here are a few recently opened hotels that I'd recommend for business travel.

Late-summer festivals deliver music, food, family fun

These festivals celebrate watermelon, beer, bourbon and more! Get the details.

California vacation: Pebble Beach for non-golfers

Pebble Beach, California, is supposed to be one of the ultimate golf destinations. I am not a golfer. So imagine my surprise on our recent California vacation when our afternoon at Pebble Beach turned out to be one of my favorite experiences!
