From Highway 1 exit on Del Monte Avenue; pass by Fisherman’s Wharf (on your right)

Stay right and proceed through the tunnel. As you exit the tunnel, stay in the righthand lane. Take the first right, Foam Street, and stay in the righthand lane again because you need to turn right again onto Cannery Row almost immediately. Drive down a slight hill and into a large parking lot at the base of the Coast Guard Jetty. (You’ll be getting excited as you see the bay and lots of boats at anchor.) Headquarters is in the parking lot at the beginning of the launch ramp!
