If you are thinking of trying to get that one last hurrah before the school year begins….I strongly recommend you come and visit us in the Monterey Bay. Santa Cruz to Carmel, there is so much to see and do for a fun weekend away.
The Monterey Bay is one of the most picturesque areas in the country. It has a bounty of activities that range from enjoying the outdoors, to museums, dining, and shopping. There is truly something for everyone.
