Thanks for stopping by the web site of Gold Coast Tattoo, located on the beautiful Monterey Peninsula, California. Welcome aboard! Gold Coast Tattoo is located at 639 Lighthouse Ave., two blocks up from historic Cannery Row, on "the hippest block in Monterey".

Gold Coast Tattoo has been decorating the Monterey Peninsula with quality work since its first tattoo shop opened in 1976. Our artists are skilled in many different styles and all are great with custom work as well. We offer a clean, professional, friendly and relaxed atmosphere where anyone will feel comfortable whether it's their first or hundredth tattoo.

We always have frequent Guest Artists from around the world, keep checking in to see who we have coming! We welcome all traveling artist's, so if you're interested in sitting in, please let us know.

Also on this site you’ll find links to different shops I’ve owned in Hawaii and the Philippines, flip through the photo albums and have a look at pictures from Hawaii, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Myanmar, as well as some of the beaches, bars, friends and family, and the just plain bizarre, grab your passport, pick a destination and take off. We hope you enjoy the trip.
