There are a lot of great beaches but with rough waves in the Monterey area. This is one of the few nice, safe and quiet beaches where kids can have fun. There is a small rock on the beach which kids can climb and be surrounded by water when the waves roll in. It is a small beach but a... More

We walked the shoreline and ventured to Lover's Point to have some pictures taken. The coastline is highlighted this time of year with beautiful spring flowers. People were biking, walking their dogs and some just sitting on the rocks watching the birds and seals. It is a nice place for families to enjoy the park . Free parking make it... More

What a beautiful place to walk and get some gorgeous pictures! The rocky coastline is one of the most beautiful in California. There is a nice walkway that goes for miles and a great place to see a sunset.

Here's a nice beach to visit while visiting the Aquarium. Great walk along the coast, benches to sit on to watch the sail boats. There isn't a playground, but there's a great rock outcropping for climbing.

I can still remember Lover's Point on trips my parents took my when I was small. I remember the swimming pool that was bustling with kids when I was small, down among the rocks, and when the road cut through the parking lot as it turned back towards the sea. Many decades later, Lover's Point remains a beautiful place to... More

We rode our bikes here from Cannery Row. The kids climbed around the rocks and entertained the squirrels. We were surprised by how domesticated the squirrels were. One came right up to my sons hand for food. The beach is nice here too. A great place to take in the ocean. It's a scenic side trip that was worth it... More

Just down from central Pacific Grove is Lover's Point park. Many weddings happen here because it is such a beautiful location overlooking the ocean. Otters, seals, sometimes dophins! Easy path for walking, benches and tables for sitting/picnics - relaxing way to experience the beautiful Pacific coast.

Great place to walk to from nearby hotels. Picnic tables and grills are available but you need to get there early on weekends. There is a great small beach enclosed by walls so it is much warmer than above and the beach is nice for children. There is a snack bar there to so you can eat at the beach.... More

Lovers Point is very sweet and intimate. I especially loved watching all the children chasing the seagulls away from their picnic. A lovely restful spot.
