Coronado
Coronado has perfect beaches to spend an entire day or weekend sprawled out under an umbrella until the sun sets over the Pacific Ocean. Swim, surf, sail, body board, fish, or just fall asleep in the sun. Other activities include beach volleyball, tide pool exploration, and kite flying. There is also a bike path south of the Hotel Del Coronado. In early winter watch for migrating whales as they migrate to warmer waters. For some, the elegant Hotel Del Coronado, a cultural centerpiece of San Diego, is the chief reason for visiting the City of Coronado. But this tiny upscale island city, separated from downtown San Diego by bridge, also boasts flat sandy beaches, stately homes, boutiques, restaurants, and breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and San Diego. This naval community is home to the U.S. Naval Amphibious Base and the North Island Naval Air Station. Coronado Municipal Beach, popular with locals, families, and tourists, is located on the ocean side of Coronado island, south of the naval air station, continuing past the Hotel Del Coronado.
For walking and biking, visitors will discover that Centennial Park is an excellent starting point. A wide concrete pathway runs east-west, affording dramatic views of downtown San Diego. You can rent bicycles near the Coronado Ferry Landing. Bike riders looking for a more challenging route can follow the same path south and east.
Glorietta Bay Beach, south of the Hotel Del Coronado, is a nice alternative for families, offering the choice of both beach and playground in a park-like setting, with views of San Diego and the Coronado Bridge.
