4 day itinerary suggestions!

Hi everyone! My family (me, my husband, and our almost 3 year old) will be visiting the area for 4 days in July! We’re from Florida so totally new to traveling in California! I’ve got a basic outline for activities, but I’d like some suggestions and fine-tuning! Also any restaurant suggestions are appreciated! Thanks!!

Thursday

- Arrive from San Francisco around 2 PM

- Park at hotel near Cannery Row, take a walk along recreation trail and check out Fisherman’s Wharf

- Check into hotel, get settled, and grab an early dinner nearby

Friday

- Monterey Bay Aquarium in the morning

- Surrey rental? (recommendations for where to bike!)

- Dennis the Menace playground in the late PM

Saturday

- Point Lobos (easy trail recommendations? bonus points for stroller friendly!)

- Big Sur (Pfeiffer Beach, McWay Falls, a light lunch at Big Sur River Inn, early dinner at Nepenthe)

Sunday

- 17 mile drive (check out Asilomar tide pools, other noteworthy stops?)

- Carmel, Carmel River beach
