Monterey Bay Sight Point is located just past the Cannery Row shops, and you can enjoy a beautiful vantage point of the bay from there.

• Bicycle Rental

  If you prefer to bike, there are several bike rental shops near the aquarium. Rent a bike from one of the nearby locations such as Monterey Bike Tours. After renting your bike, exit the aquarium and head left towards Cannery Row. Bike along the same path as mentioned before. This option provides a quicker route, taking about 5 minutes to reach Monterey Bay Sight Point, located at 886 Cannery Row. Be cautious of pedestrians as you ride along the busy waterfront.
