What clothes should I wear for whale watching in Monterey?
The weather on Monterey Bay is unpredictable, even in the summertime. Dress in layers to ensure you're comfortable and warm during your whale watching adventure. Wear long pants, a windbreaker, closed-toed shoes, and a cap or hat. You'll also need to bring sunscreen, lip balm, and sunglasses. In the winter, wear a coat and gloves.
