Del Monte Aviation is rich in history. For some, the name “Del Monte” may be reminiscent of canned pineapples. However, the name “Del Monte” is also considered an important part of the history of the Monterey Peninsula. The name often was used over the years as the peninsula became known as a hot spot to visit for luxurious and professional services, not to mention golf in a spectacular landscape!
For example, in 1880, Monterey’s grand and most opulent hotel was called the Hotel Del Monte (now the Naval Postgraduate School).
Then, in the 1890’s , as the game of golf made its journey west, the Hotel Del Monte attached the name to its new golf course (now locally known as the “Old Del Monte” course). Old Del Monte is considered to be the oldest golf course in continuous operations west of the Mississippi.
