CORONADO HOMES FOR SALE

About Coronado

Coronado is the southernmost city in coastal San Diego.

This beautiful, iconic “island” (technically it’s a tombolo) is situated less than one mile from downtown San Diego (by bridge or by boat), but it might as well be a million miles away. Coronado is that idyllic and uniquely enchanting!

While it was as early as 1542 (yes, 1542) that Juan Cabrillo, during a Spanish expedition, first sailed in and around Coronado, it wasn’t until 1886 that development first began here.

Coronado is most associated with the world-famous Hotel Del Coronado, which was the largest resort hotel in the world when it opened in 1888.

However, the city is also the birthplace of naval aviation and home to Naval Air Station North Island, as well as the Naval Amphibious Base (five SEAL Teams). 

Water definitely is Coronado’s culture and playground, as it is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, San Diego Bay, Glorietta Bay and various waterways and inlets.

Though it may only stretch 1.25 miles east to west and 6.25 miles north to south, there is plenty to do without ever having to leave the island.

Residents enjoy some of the very best beaches in the world, 22 different parks, Coronado Golf Course, Coronado Tennis Center, multiple yacht clubs, the Ferry Landing, a burgeoning restaurant scene, as well as many civic oriented events such as holiday parades and celebrations.
