San Diego Bay provides a picturesque postcard image for meetings held on HARBOR ISLAND and SHELTER ISLAND. Cruise liners, U. S. Navy aircraft carriers, historic tall ships and vessels of nearly every description parade through the bay in an endless flotilla throughout the year. Located directly across from the SAN DIEGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, Harbor Island and Shelter Island feature numerous marinas, sportfishing excursions, recreational opportunities and scenic promenades for exercise or relaxing. Numerous hotels and restaurants on Harbor and Shelter islands offer spectacular views of San Diego Bay, the dynamic Downtown skyline, Coronado and neighboring POINT LOMA as well as stunning outdoor venues. This location makes them popular for meeting planners and delegates who want easy access to the airport and Downtown while enjoying a nearby city escape. |
Located south of Harbor and Shelter islands, the Point Loma peninsula is home to CABRILLO NATIONAL MONUMENT, where Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo landed in 1542 to lead the first European exploration of what is now the U. S. West Coast. The surrounding park is one of San Diego’ s most accessible and beautiful natural wonders, with hiking trails, a historic lighthouse and fabulous lookouts from atop the 400-foot-high point. Visitors sometimes spot gray whales breaching at sea during their winter migration south to Mexican waters. Point Loma is also home to LIBERTY STATION, a master-planned community with hotels, restaurants, shops and a historic ARTS DISTRICT. It is also home to art museums, dance studios and popular restaurants with unique special-event venues, many of which are outdoors. Point Loma’ s convenient and scenic location makes it a memorable spot for meetings and special events. |
