Some of the best scuba diving known to man. So whether you’re exploring with family or friends, here are the best hotels on the Monterey Peninsula for group getaways.

The Monterey Bay-Central Coast area of California can claim any number of items that attract waves of visitors, and famously so. One other thing it provides, with all the quality and a fraction of the recognition, is great group lodging. The venues that go above and beyond in that category function well on a number of fronts, from unforgettable settings to scalable conference space to accessible entertainment.
