Fisherman's wharf in Monterey, California

Here are some pics of the Fisherman's wharf in Monterey,California. This was the place that we went for our whale watching expedition. In some ways, it is like the Fisherman's wharf in San Francisco but on a much smaller scale.

Besides the world famous Monterey Aquarium, the Old Fisherman's Wharf in Monterey is one of the must visit spots in Monterey. Besides the sourvenir shops, there are fine restaurants that serve some of the best clam chowder that one can expect to get. Of course, then, there are the Dungeness crabs that make crab eating an out of the world type of experience.
