Old Fisherman's Wharf offers a lively & colorful waterfront with many restaurants, souvenir shopping & sightseeing opportunities. Remnants of the early Monterey fishing industry are evident here & I recommend to walk the paths of history with daily tours of the many historic adobes including the Monterey Custom House on the Plaza. All worthwhile adventures for families & history buffs alike.
