This museum displays and documents the natural history of beautiful Monterey County. The bulk of its exhibits showcase the native geology, aboriginal populations, plants, and animals of the region. In addition to permanent exhibits, the museum also hosts special events including a celebrated annual Wild Flower Show. After a trip to the museum, check out another local attraction, the Point Pinos Lighthouse. Admission is free to both places.
