This is well deserved. It's small, but beautiful.

At MBARI (now in Moss landing) the first research vessel
was purchased as ‘Lolita’ and renamed ‘Pt. Lobos’.
The first ROV was ‘Ventana’. Started in Pacific Grove.

I’ve dove there many, many times. Beautiful place.

Monastery beach just to the north is another beautiful place with some gnarly waves. Plunging breakers, excellent diving.

The small whaling museum on the north side is a must stop. Small, but lots to look at and absorb. The rangers who ‘man’ it can be a fount of info. What a great park! And if you park on the road, you should contribute $10 to support the system.

For 20 years I took a small group of summer program college students there (from out of state) before taking them on a whale-watching cruise in the afternoon. They loved it.

People park and walk miles to get to it, the parking is so crowded
