Things To Do
Shelter Island
Shelter Island is a neighborhood of Point Loma in San Diego, California, United States. It is actually not an island but is connected to the mainland by a narrow strip of land. It was originally a sandbank in San Diego Bay, visible only at low tide. It was built up into dry land using material dredged from the bay in 1934. It was developed in the 1950s and contains hotels, restaurants, marinas, and public parkland. The "island" is 1.2 miles long and only a few hundred feet wide. A single street, Shelter Island Drive, runs the length of Shelter Island and also connects it to the mainland via a causeway lined with marine-related businesses.
Cabrillo National Monument
The Cabrillo National Monument Park commemorates Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo's West Coast exploration, Point Loma's 19th century lighthouses and San Diego's WWII coast defenses, and protects sensitive tide pools and coastal sage scrub habitat. Throughout WWI and WWII, Point Loma's military installations played crucial roles in coastal and harbor defense. Today, Cabrillo National Monument safeguards 21 military structures, including the sole surviving pop-up searchlight, pivotal in safeguarding San Diego Harbor and the West Coast during both world wars.
