What is the best time to visit Monterey?

The best time to visit Monterey is the spring months of April and May. Monterey is also known seasonally for two popular festivals. California Roots Arts and Music Festival is held in May every year at the Monterey Country Fairgrounds. It features different genres of live music and painting on-stage over three days. The Annual Monterey Jazz festival is an annual jazz festival that spans the entire third weekend in September.

Visitors flock to the Monterey County Fairgrounds for the extensive jazz festival, which includes workshops, discussions, exhibitions, food and shopping stalls, and not to mention, concerts. Both May and September are mild, weather-wise, times to visit Monterey. The temperatures tend to be milder around then and expect lesser crowds.
