Monterey Bay Aquarium

Monterey Bay Aquarium is a world-renowned attraction in Monterey, California. The aquarium is situated on the site of a defunct sardine cannery, which was once the largest in the world. It opened in 1984 and has since become a popular destination for tourists, drawing over two million visitors annually. The aquarium showcases over 35,000 marine creatures, including sea otters, sharks, and jellyfish, in beautifully designed exhibits. It also has an on-site research and conservation program, which focuses on the protection and preservation of ocean life. The serene setting of the aquarium, right on the edge of the Pacific, makes it a great place to visit for anyone looking to learn more about marine life or just enjoy the view.
