Enjoy Coronado’s balmy weather with an afternoon at Coronado Beach; make sure to stay until early evening for some stunning views of the San Diego skyline. While you’re waiting, you can swim, sunbathe, or just kick back while you go fishing in the beautiful Pacific waters; if you’re feeling adventurous, get out on the water in a sailboat or kayak. Popular beaches in the area include Coronado Municipal Beach, Silver Strand State Beach, and if you’re traveling with four-legged friends, Coronado Dog Beach.
Tour the Victorian-era Hotel del Coronado, and explore the nearby Museum of History and Art, filled with local exhibits of western and cultural artwork and artifacts. And the Art-in-the-Park events at Spreckels Park provide visitors with a terrific opportunity to take home some local art of your own. Catch a show at Lamb’s Players Theatre, promising to impress regardless of what performance you see.
There are plenty of shops, restaurants, and accommodations in Coronado––and since it’s an island, many of them feature exquisite coastal vistas. Peruse the stores and galleries along the Paseo de Mar, or take the ferry across the bay to San Diego’s waterfront, where you can see famous Balboa Park and the Gaslamp Quarter.
