Lonely Planet review

Across the bay from downtown, Coronado provides natural protection to San Diego's port - and just as carefully guards its own conservative ambience. Locals call it an island, but although it's administratively separated from San Diego, it's connected to the mainland by the spectacular, 2.12-mile Coronado Bay Bridge (opened in 1969), as well as by a long, narrow spit of sand known as the Silver Strand.
