Monterey Sea Otters Feeding in Pacific Grove Video

Sea Otters here have to be one of the main attractions here in Monterey California. You may not realize this until you actually spend some time watching these playful guys. They’ll give you a smile from ear to ear especially if you’re lucky enough to spot 2 or more playing and hunting.

Keep your eyes peeled while walking along one of many Monterey pathways and coastal trails. They can be difficult to spot at first and easy to mix up with Harbor Seals or Sea Lions since they’re often spotted some distance off the coast.

A tip though, Sea Otters swim on their backs and use their chest as a table tray for their meals. They also have thick brown to light brown fur. Harbor Seals and Sea Lions do not have fur. Matter of fact, Otters are the only Marine Mammal that have fur.

Check out this Sea Otter Video taken just off of the pathway just South of Lover’s Point in Pacific Grove on Ocean View Blvd.

Binoculars or a camera with a nice zoom lens will give you good views but for the best place to see Sea Otters in the wild check out Sea Otters Secret Hangout.

The Monterey Aquarium has a great Sea Otter exhibit as well.

Thanks for stopping by!
