Coronado California - camping and city information
Coronado California
Coronado is a small town connected to the City of
San Diego by the San Diego-Coronado Bridge. It is surrounded by the Pacific
Ocean, and Glorietta and San Diego bays. Coronado also offers great views
of Point Loma, the Coronado Islands 13 miles offshore, and Tijuana can
be seen to the south. Downtown Coronado boasts many restaurants and unique
shops. As well, Dog Beach is at the north end of Ocean Boulevard where
dogs can run leash-free.

The Hotel del Coronado is a classic historic hotel considered one of America 's most beautiful beach resorts. It was built in 1888 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1977. Today it offers beachfront luxury in an enchanting Victorian atmosphere. In town is the Naval Base Coronado which includes Naval Air Station North Island, home port for two aircraft carriers and the Naval Amphibious Base where the Navy SEALS are trained. |
Ferry Landing Marketplace has shops, restaurants and stunning views of downtown San Diego. You can also take a 15-minute ferry ride between Coronado and San Diego. Miles of bike paths hug the coastline and provide a great way to see some of Coronado while biking, roller blading or walking.
Jason's thoughts - Loved the menu
and meal quality at the Bay Beach Café with nice views of the downtown
San Diego skyline across the water at Ferry Market Landing. Little swimming
area and lots of cool walkways for strollers, bikers, roller blading,
and shop walking. You can also walk out on a long pier and watch the huge
naval ships and sailboats go in and out of the harbor. Go to the huge
marina across from the Hotel del Coronado as it is a nice 45 minute stroll
along the water. We met a nice lady who let us board her 44 foot catamaran
when we told her of our plans to possibly sail out of South Florida to
the British Virgin Islands.
Kelly's thoughts - Coronado is a quaint town with
a good feeling. The shopping is typical seaside attire. The San Diego
Bay is awesome with all the gigantic Navy ships. This is the place to
be if you love the outdoors and the big city next door.
Travel Info - Coronado did not seem RV friendly. The safest bet
would be parking at Silver Strand State Beach and driving into town. From
San Diego, take I-5 south and exit Highway 75 to Coronado. The San Diego-Coronado
Bridge toll is no longer in service. Map location for Coronado.
