Monterey Beach Holiday

If you're planning to escape the hectic rush of the city, a Monterey holiday is just the ticket. There's no lack of coastal views to take in during a trip to Monterey. Those who enjoy being near the water may already be familiar with Carmel Beach (6 kilometres away) and will probably prefer to stay nearby. But don't worry if the closest accommodation are booked out. Loads of visitors also take advantage of Monterey packages around Asilomar State Beach and Pfeiffer Beach.
