art and space museums
in Balboa Park, a mission, Point Loma
Lighthouse, Old Town and scenic Coronado Island
for starters.
Coronado Island is home to the famed Hotel del Coronado. Dignitaries and stars have vacationed at the resort as well as been featured in movies filmed there such as "Some Like it Hot" with Marilyn Monroe and Jack Lemmon.
Pictured left is historic Old Town. Built on a hillside, it features restored buildings and lies
in the heart of a community steeped in Spanish influence. Restaurants make authentic tortillas
over flames as dancers click their heels to live guitar music in open plaza entertainment.
Right is Seaport Village, an outdoor shopping area stretching along a harbor front.
