Coronado is such a great place to live and is so steeped in history and tradition. Take for example the Coronado Ferry with it’s first small boat dating back to 1886! It seems that quaint Coronado was “going green” long before green was just a color in vogue!

One of the best kept secrets in Coronado is the FREE Commuter Ferry service that is provided by the City of Coronado for residents and Military of San Diego and Coronado. The first ferry out of Coronado leaves at 0615. The three other commuter times are 0715, 0800 and 0835. In order to get your fare free service for the return trip you will need to obtain a commuter ticket from the ferry crew before disembarking. Unfortunately, after January 15, 2010 the San Diego-Coronado Ferry Service will no longer service the Naval Air Station North Island (NASNI) ferry landing. The Navy was prompted to end this service in light of security and funding considerations.
Pedestrians and bicyclists board at the Coronado Ferry Landing and disembark at the Broadway Pier in San Diego adjacent to the intersection of Broadway and North Harbor Drive.
