Explore the REAL Cannery Row in Monterey California

Join us as we explore the iconic Cannery Row in Monterey, California — a place where history, literature, and stunning ocean views come together. Once the bustling heart of the sardine canning industry, Cannery Row is now one of Monterey Bay’s most popular attractions.

In this travel vlog, we’ll walk through Cannery Row, share its fascinating history, and stop by the Cannery Row Monument at Steinbeck Plaza — featuring bronze statues of John Steinbeck, Ed Ricketts, and the hardworking cannery workers who made this place famous.

Did you know? John Steinbeck’s 1945 novel Cannery Row made this street world-renowned, and in 1958 the city officially renamed Ocean View Avenue to Cannery Row in his honor.
