Coronado is so beautiful.. you really dropped a lot of knowledge in this one !! Great job Jay. You'll be the King of San Diego within a few months.

[@Jaycation]

Thanks Bruh! Loved seeing it in a different perspective with my longboard this time around. I'm always just driving through. Hope these SD vids catch steam!

I HAVE BIN THARE AND I BEN AT HOLTEL

I had a small 1 bedroom apartment 3 blocks from the beach in Coronado back in the 1990s...rent was 650/mo. Best time of my life.

[@kathycarson3861]

Was there this weekend. So beautiful ! I can’t wait to be back.

[@barbarathompson7983]

Learned from Action Kid about you. Loved your video of San Deigo. If possible coulld you do stream of Naval Base and Hotel Top of the Mark. My dad is WWII Navy vet and would love to just see it one more time. He is 85 yrs young. Thanks.

[@roosterj2599]

I love your shirt. I'm from National City myself. I grew up on the ocean. We had a commercial boat and fished for tuna and sharks. Good times. We had a space to dock in glorieta bay.

[@nalafischer9163]

Oooh, I love Mootime😊 and I'm glad you mentioned the base traffic. Also good to note that there's traffic onto Coronado In the early morning til around 7:30-8:00

[@Jaycation]

The Base traffic is no joke. It gets really busy! Mootime is awesome. Such a great ice cream spot. Now im craving some!

[@nathananderson8204]

I go there as often as possible.... My favorite beach.

[@Jaycation]

one of the best sunsets in all of san diego! having the del as the backdrop isnt bad either... i can see why its your favorite beach

Fun and informative video!I lived in San Diego from 1988-1992.I visted Coronado quite a bit.I love the hotel Del,the beach,and there was a Chinese restaurant that was good I loved how you showed quite a few of those large beautiful houses.I'm sure they are worth millions.

[@livburks6565]

Every time we go to Coronado Island, we just go and see just the Hotel del Coronado. I didn’t know there’s more to explore. We will go there next week and check out also Miguel’s Cocina and order some flautas! Thank Jay Uncle Johnny

[@zandra7966]

I'm driving down from LA tomorrow, you touched on many of the places I have on my list to visit.

[@Jaycation]

Hope you had a fun time in SD!

[@zandra7966]

@@Jaycation Yes I did. It was quiet on a week day. I spent around 4 hrs exploring Coronado and street parking was 25c per hour.

[@bcschroer]

Hey I loved everything you had to say in that short clip about Coronado … But there’s so much to add for example when you were going towards the Hotel Del on the right are big clumps of grass in the sand and from the sky you can see that it spells out Coronado. Some of those beautiful mansions on the left side of the beach are places where presidents such as Clinton Bush etc. and you passed one of them- even the Duke of Windsor had a special cottage right there on the hotel Del which is why that grass that you passed is called Windsor lawn. Anyway there is so much detail about Coronado that’s fun to learn about Dash like the year the bridge was built in 1969 which was the end of the ferry across the bay… But seriously you’re a lot of fun to watch and you covered a lot of info!

[@SwiftyTravels]

This is a great thorough review of Coronado! I always wanted to rent one of those lovely Victorian houses and ride bikes all over the island😀😀

[@Jaycation]

Thanks! You should rent that victorian house with the bright red roof! Right next to the beach entrance.

[@PAWS0810-]

I had heard about the "Hotel del Coronado", but i thought it was in the city of San Diego. I didn't know this island existed!!! By the way, it really is a beautiful island!

[@Jaycation]

haha the island that really isnt an island... just named that for tourism purposes. But still beautiful!

[@cynthiagonzalez3810]

I plan to go there for Fourth of July!

[@LVraindancer100]

Nice video on Coronado I lived there for about six years. Coronao is not an island it’s a peninsula. It’s connected to the mainland by Imperial Beach. It’s not the Coronado Bay Bridge it’s the San Diego Bay bridge. My husband and I loved MIGUEL’s and went there often so I was glad to see it’s still there. And while I’m at it it’s called a Hotel Del Coronado not the Hotel Del. LOL.

[@jonesy2892]

Jeez... Pedantic much?

[@ilovemybrudder]

My mom and dad were stationed on north island so I grew up in imperial beach and my mom tells me about the restaurant all the time. There’s a really good restaurant that does like a brunch classical/ jazz music in Point Loma we use to go to all the time I forget the name though

[@Jaycation]

thats awesome! hmm is that restaurant Bali Hai? It's known for it's sunday brunch!

[@ilovemybrudder]

Love all of your videos! So helpful and informational! Out of all the towns near San Diego, what would you say is town with the best beaches in walking/biking distance that is the most reasonably priced for renting?

[@Jaycation]

Thanks Keira! Everything in North county is pretty pricey but u can find places in Encinitas for a decent price and they have so many places nearby. Pacific Beach is the least pricey but still expensive lol

I enjoyed your video! Is it difficult to travel around with public transport? Do join us on our travels too around Singapore and the region.

[@michellew3441]

I’ve been to San Diego a hand full of times, about a 2 hour drive without traffic so like 4 hours lol. My future in laws booked my honeymoon here and I’ve never been. With Covid we wanted to go somewhere we could drive to since our trip we had planned to Hawaii earlier in the year was canceled because at the time they wanted us to quarantine for 14 days in our hotel, we had 10 days so that went out the window. So now I’m looking up videos to see what it’s all about on Coronado island. You did a great job and I can’t wait to see it for myself.

[@Jaycation]

haha you're right about a 2 hour drive turning into a 4 hour drive! So I take it youre from the LA area? Ahh Hawaii, I heard that they have a faster testing protocol now so that you don't have to quarantine when you get on the island. I hope to go soon! Coronado is great, it's quiet right now and places are open. Mostly everyone follows mask protocols so I felt safe walking around there. I appreciate the comment and enjoy Coronado!

[@PictureEntertainment420]

awesome beautiful island.

It really is! What's your favorite part?

Fortunately, I still live close enough to Coronado whenever I need a “jaycation” and since my last name is really ‘Jay’ I can use that term! Mabuhay!

[@Jaycation]

Hi Annie! So San Diego named Coronado, Coronado Island on purpose because the tourism board said it would attract more tourists. So although its not an island, they still named it that to attract people to visit! haha i searched it up a while back and was amazed by that story. Mabuhay to you too! haha i like how u use Jaycation! U should get a shirt haha
