El Estero Park Complex & Dennis the Menace Playground

A block from Monterey Bay is the most popular park in downtown Monterey: El Estero Park, home of the famous Dennis the Menace playground.

Carmel Beach (Carmel-by-the-Sea)

Walk or drive straight down Ocean Avenue, from the Cabrillo Highway to Scenic Road, and you'll find yourself at the glorious Carmel Beach.

Below is a list of all the places you can go to get your favorite speedy burgers, tacos, fries, shakes, et al.
