No matter how old or young your children are, there’s no way they won’t enjoy a fun ferry ride to Coronado for a day of shopping and warm sunshine. Enjoy your day shopping at many unique stores on Coronado, and enjoy your scenic travels there on a 15-minute ferry ride. Bring your bicycle on the ferry and plan on biking around the island and having a relaxing day with your family that will make your quality time unforgettable.

If you want to take your kids and family out for a day of educational and historical adventures, make sure to go to the Cabrillo National Monument in Point Loma. This monument honors Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo and his accomplishment of coming to the San Diego Bay in 1542. This was the first time an explorer adventured through the West Coast and this monument is a reminder of where this city came from. Make sure to plan this day in advance, and to be sure to take advantage of all the adventure and history this monument has to offer. The Old Point Loma Lighthouse is also a part of this historic attraction. The light house has been in our beloved city since 1855 and is the highest point at the historic park.

Your children’s faces will light up as they explore the touch pools where you can watch your kids splash their hands around in a tide pool replica. Enjoy a soothing and exciting day at the aquarium with your whole family, and your kids will be begging to go back very chance they get.
