Monterey Bay Aquarium

Spent the day at the Monterey Bay Aquarium and honestly, it was amazing! The ocean views alone are worth the trip, but the exhibits make it even better. The jellyfish, sea otters, and that giant open-sea tank were my favorites, it’s so peaceful just watching everything move. I love how the place mixes fun with learning about ocean life and conservation. If you’re ever in Monterey, definitely make time for this spot. It’s such a cool mix of relaxing and inspiring! 💙🐟

If you can this is a place you must visit. If you do go on a weekend expect it to be crowded. Their cafeteria has some rather good food. It is more OK on the side but it beats leaving and struggling to find parking again. They do tend to have a limited variety a food. #summervibes #ThingsToDo
