    I grew up in San Diego, and my mother worked on Coronado. She used to bring us to work with her on weekends and after work she would take us around the island. This video brought back many fond memories! Thank you!

One friend I met here lives near by. I got four wheel skateboard. I like to ride all the way down the end of the peninsula island. The the sky scrapers from across the bay. The paddle boat is cool.

    Thanks for the tour! I kind of grew up in San Diego, and my dad was stationed at North Island. Mixed emotional memories of seeing him leave on a carrier, and return on a carrier (multiple times). We used to take the big ferry before the bridge was built. Super vivid memories. Thanks again!

    We stayed at the Lavienda Inn across the way from the Del Coronado last August. We fell in love with the place it's beautiful and coming from England everybody was just so friendly.
    What a stunning place.
    We loved the local bar McP's Irish Bar where Navy Seals go ... Great food beer and atmosphere.
    Off course the trolley tour picks you up from the island and takes you to San Diego and all it's sightseeing areas.
    Christmas 2021 we will be back. Can not wait.
    Note: Had breakfast at the Del Coronado, wasn't cheap but an awesome experience.
    Great vlog 🤘🏽😎🤘🏽

    We used to stay there back when I was a pup, late 60's. We stayed at place across the street from the Del, the hotel was built in and around Spreckles mansion which was built in 1908, the Glorietta Bay Inn. Was a great place to stay. We went before the bridge was built, you could either take the ferry across which we usually did. The other option was to drive along the Strand.

    • @SavageBunny1
      @SavageBunny1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You don't need to take a ferry, you can drive (if you're renting a car) from the San Diego Airport to Coronado in about 10 minutes, its just a nice little ferry ride that's relaxing, you can also just take a cab to drop you off in Sea Port village, its a really nice place, tons of shops, where the ferry drops you off is on the north side, also a ton of shops and restaurants there, but if you want to go to the Coronado hotel, you'll have to take a cab, its about 3-4 mile walk. There's a ton of stuff walking distance from the Coronado hotel.
