Schooners
400 Cannery Row, Monterey 372-2628, schoonersmonterey.com
Perched atop a rocky shoreline and overlooking a kelp forest, there’s no setting in Monterey County more evocative of the Cannery Row vibe than Schooners, which looks north across Monterey Bay at the waters that once provided the region, and much of the world, with sardines. And the best part is, you still get the view at Schooners, but the only smell is coming from the salt air.
