Confirmed from Coronado Ferry Landing Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Waterfront ferry stop featuring beach access, waterfront dining and a bike-rental shop.
What runners say about Coronado Ferry Landing Park
“There was live music, plenty of dining options and cafés, great shopping, and beautiful beaches to enjoy!”
As a thriller and romance author, I always appreciate places with incredible scenery and atmosphere, and Coronado Ferry Landing Park is one of the most beautiful spots to spend time on Coronado Island. The park sits right along the waterfront and offers unbeatable views across the bay toward the San Diego skyline.
Easy way to travel from San Diego across to the Coronado Island. The ferry runs every 30 min daily from 9:30 AM, they are very punctual. Guests can choose from ample seating on the upper deck or below. Overall, it was a wonderful ferry ride!
Fun, music, low-cost fun. Lots of dinning options, across street too. Parking available, but not always free. Good walk around area, or just to chill on grass, or multiple beaches!👒🏖️, Docks for launch or to park boats. Tables to sit at/dine. And Pier/dock to fish🐠🐟
A great place to take a walk; enjoy a nice meal and people watch! Fabulous views of the San Diego Skyline. Also a perfect place to rent bikes or board the Ferry to Downtown San Diego.
