Families, especially those with younger kids, will love all the family activities that Monterey offers.  From glass-bottomed boats to Dennis the Menace Park, Monterey has amusements for children and adults of all ages.  Most families make a beeline for Monterey Bay Aquarium and the rest of Cannery Row where there are shops and sights for most of the family.  Make sure you don’t Dennis the Menace Park; located just across the street from the parking for Fisherman’s Warf, is a great place to let kids run around and stretch their legs as they explore the unusual and inventive playground equipment especially designed to inspire children.  After they’ve worn themselves out a bit consider walking along Fisherman’s Warf or spending some time on a glass-bottomed boat exploring the bay a bit closer.  If you get a nice sunny afternoon Monterey Beach is a great destination for kids looking to swim and play in the sand.  No matter what your family’s style is, Monterey is sure to have something to do to match your interests.
