BEST TIME TO
VISIT MONTEREY, CALIFORNIA
Summer is the high season in Monterey, with throngs everywhere. November
through April is the off-season period.
Accommodation prices follow the arriving of crowds: they are
much higher in the summer period.
Mid seasons (or even Winter) are good periods to visit Monterey
if you don't intend to practice any outdoor sport. See
Monterey Weather Table, for details on
rain, humidity and temperatures (temperatures in Monterey are
relatively constant year round, without big extremes, but there
is a persistent cool breeze and many foggy days; due to the
influence of the sea, temperatures in inland places as Salinas
or Carmel Valley can be 15 or 20º Fwarmer (in summer) or cooler
(in winter) than those in Carmel and Monterey).
WHEN NOT
TO GO TO
THE WINE COUNTRY
To avoid the crowds don't choose the Summer months, or the
weekends and holidays.
November through April is the off-season period.
