Review:
Coronado Municipal Beach has been ranked as America's best beach by the popular annual survey by "Dr. Beach," ranking the nation's public beachfronts by a combined scale of environmental quality and visitor amenities. The spectacular San Diego beach, which showcases unique glittering sand due to the presence of mica, is home to four separate beachfront areas, including Centennial Park, Coronado City Beach, Glorietta Bay Park, and Tidelands Park.
All beachfront areas are safe for young ones to play at, with calm tide pools located near the historic Hotel del Coronado, constructed in 1888 as one of the American West's most impressive 19th-century resorts. Volleyball courts abound for visitor use, with ideal weather conditions for kite flying and skimboarding year-round. The nearby Moo Time Creamery is a popular spot for frozen treats, while fire pits along the beach's northern end make for great s'mores roasting sites. Map
