Coronado Central Beach
Coronado · United States
The short version, from the cited sources
Coronado Central Beach fronts the Hotel del Coronado, the 1888 wooden Victorian resort that gives this wide San Diego-area shore its identity. The flat, generous strand sparkles faintly with mica in the sand, and the gentle offshore slope produces forgiving waves that suit families and beginning bodysurfers. Navy jets from the adjacent air station and the silhouette of Point Loma frame an otherwise unhurried, old-resort scene.
