Monterey Bay is a mid-size, friendly area with breathtaking vistas. The white sand beaches are perfect for relaxation and recreation, while premier golf courses dazzle even seasoned pros. With a superb aquarium and Monterey’s world-leading conservation initiatives, marine wildlife can be seen during any given stroll along the coast. The campus is located in the center of the California shoreline, providing students unparalleled access to the state’s greatest destinations, which some consider to be the best in the country.
