Review:
Coronado is a historic resort city on a peninsula in San Diego Bay. The city’s oldest landmark is the 1888 grand Victorian Hotel del Coronado (Video). The magnificent hotel is located just across from Coronado Beach, which is popular with surfers and sunbathers.
On the western end of the beach is the leash-free Coronado Dog Beach. The Coronado Ferry Landing is a lively area with shops and restaurants, while the Gaslamp Quarter is famous for its rich nightlife. Centennial Park offers spectacular views of the San Diego skyline, and the Point Loma Peninsula has a popular park with the Cabrillo National Monument, hiking trails, tide pools, and fascinating exhibits on California history.
