Welcome to Point Loma

Alongside Coronado and the Silver Strand, the Point Loma peninsula defines the San Diego Bay, protecting the downtown area from the Pacific’s waves. It’s a hilly and somewhat rugged stretch of land with a divided personality: In the north lies the residential and commercial zones while the south is a protected park and military land. Visitors come for the hiking, surfing, and sunsets, then stay for the laid-back lifestyle. Even though “the Point” is geographically close to the bustle of downtown, it possesses such a surprisingly different sort of atmosphere—like that of a suburban seaside village.
