A
majestic
must
see
when
visiting
the
Central
Coast
or
Monterey
Peninsula
area.
I
will
start
with
the
parking
situation,
if
you
are
arriving
on
a
weekend
expect
to
park
in
the
paid
parking
structure
if
you're
lucky
you'll
find
free
parking
on
the
streets
nearby
wave
Street
Prescott
and
David
Street
are
close
by
if
you
can
find
free
parking.
We
pay
$20
for
all
day
parking
and
it
was
worth
it
not
having
to
circle
around
the
busy
streets.
It
was
a
bit
of
a
walk
to
the
aquarium
from
our
parking
structure
but
it
wasn't
terrible.
We
bought
our
tickets
Advance
which
I
highly
recommend
because
we
did
not
have
to
wait
in
line
even
on
a
busy
sunday.
The
staff
was
so
kind
and
helpful.
The
facilities
are
clean
well
organized
and
well
maintained.
There's
so
much
to
explore
from
different
exhibits
Hands-On
experiences
and
beautiful
floor
to
ceiling
aquariums
where
you
get
to
gaze
into
what
looks
like
the
depths
of
the
ocean.
A
great
place
to
bring
children
very
educational
they
have
so
many
exhibits
and
activities
for
the
kids.
I
will
say
it
was
a
little
overcrowded
for
my
liking
so
it
was
difficult
to
take
a
moment
to
enjoy
the
beautiful
aquariums
because
so
many
people
were
rushing
in
and
out.
I
will
definitely
recommend
coming
during
a
weekday
where
you
can
sit
take
some
time
to
really
appreciate
the
Beautiful
views.
There
are
so
many
observation
decks
overlooking
the
Pacific
Ocean
where
you
can
escape
out
to
for
some
alone
time.
You
get
beautiful
views
of
the
Bay
and
the
sea
otters
on
the
nearby
rocks.
The
cafe
was
overpriced.
So
I
would
highly
recommend
grabbing
a
meal
before
coming
in.
We
paid
almost
$8
for
a
basic
coffee.
Expect
to
spend
between
3
and
4
hours
if
you
really
want
to
get
the
most
out
of
your
experience.
I
would
recommend
getting
there
after
3:00
p.m.
where
the
crowds
start
to
die
down.
