Monterey, California is a scenic coastal spot for digital nomads 🌊💻. It offers a relaxed vibe, ocean views, and a walkable downtown with cafés and coworking-friendly spots. Great for focus and weekend outdoor adventures like hiking, biking, and whale watching. It’s charming and peaceful, though pricier and quieter than bigger tech hubs.
