The area around Monterey Bay is a sanctuary called the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, an underwater state park if you like. There are 13 National Marine Sanctuaries in the USA. You can find out more about them here : http://montereybay.noaa.gov/
This is the view south from the aquarium, across the bay and onto the headland.
