Seaside:

Seaside City Limits S ituated on rolling hills with an elevation from four to 400 feet, Seaside is best known as the "sunny spot" on the Peninsula, and, due to its hilly and unforested terrain, offers striking views of Monterey Bay and the Peninsula skyline.

It is the most populous city in the bay area, and has two lakes within its limits. At Canyon del Rey Boulevard and Hilby Avenue, Laguna Grande Regional Park, is a 60-acre restored wetlands with a beautiful 12-acre lake. The park offers a one-mile bicycle path that circles the lake, a multipurpose athletic field, volleyball courts, public restrooms, a playground and picnic area, nature trail and a bird-watching area.

Seaside's City Hall was designed by Edward Durrell Stone, a world famous architect.
