BACKSTORY: From The Coronado Visitor Center website:
Across the soaring bridge from downtown San Diego is Coronado, a relaxed Southern California beach town, boasting one of the world's best beaches, endless sunshine, and a bayside overlooking San Diego's skyline.
Coronado's flat sand beach has family-friendly surf and sunsets framed by the silhouette of Point Loma. Coronado hosts visitors with world-class resorts, an 18-hole golf course bordering the bay, spas, art galleries and yacht marinas.
Coronado is home to the Hotel del Coronado, the Victorian beach-front masterpiece that is a national treasure.
Coronado celebrates its rich cultural heritage. Coronado offers a wealth of water sports on Coronado Beach, San Diego Bay and down the Silver Strand.
Coronado's mile-long main street is a pedestrian's paradise, and its tree-lined neighborhoods are an explorer's delight. Named one of the Dozen Distinctive Destinations and given the Great American MainStreet Award, Coronado's setting invites distinctive boutiques, parades and picnics in the park.
Coronado's enchanting surroundings and its convenience to the attractions of San Diego make for a perfect Southern California vacation, whether family holiday, fairy tale wedding, or a season in the sun. |
