About Aquário da Baía de Monterey
Monterey Bay Aquarium occupies the former cannery district along Monterey Bay. Its spaces present marine life and the coast’s relationship with the ocean.
The kelp forest and large tanks allow observation of organisms at different scales. The visit requires time spent in front of exhibits, rather than turning it into a quick search for every animal or relying on a feeding at a specific time.
To organize your visit to Monterey Bay Aquarium, buy tickets in advance and choose a long session for exhibits and breaks; the collection justifies staying longer than a simple stop on the waterfront.
