“Located directly north of the Naval Amphibious Base, Glorietta Bay Park offers approximately 2 acres of grassy lawn, a playground, and small sandy beach area. This sheltered cove is a nice place for families to play & enjoy the views of the Coronado Municipal Golf Course across the small bay area, and San Diego’s skyline across the big bay. Easy walking distance from the Hotel del Coronado, it’s one of my preferred picnicking destinations…” Sandbag C. Gull
Coronado’s Municipal Pool is located in the complex of city buildings, and boaters can also enjoy a variety of amenities in the vicinity, with a public boat launch and marina located north of the park area!
