Off the Course

The Monterey Bay Aquarium was founded in 1984 and is
located on the site of a former sardine cannery on Cannery Row of
the Pacific Ocean shoreline. The aquarium holds thousands of plants
and animals, representing more than 600 species on display, and
benefits from a high circulation of fresh ocean water which is obtained
through pipes which pump it in continuously from Monterey Bay.

The centerpiece of the Ocean’s Edge Wing, is a 28 feet high
333,000-gallon tank for viewing California coastal marine life. Sealife
on exhibit includes stingrays, jellyfish, sea otters, and numerous
other native marine species, which can be viewed above and below
the waterline.
