SPRECKELS

Located between Salinas and Monterey on Highway 68, Spreckels was originally a company town built to support the Spreckels Sugar Plant. When it opened in 1899, it was the largest sugar beet factory in the world. Its idyllic tree-lined town entrance and preserved homes and buildings are charming, and centrally located Spreckels Memorial Park is a great spot to enjoy a picnic.
