My sister was a real swimmer and she enjoyed beaches like OB or IB, but I always thought they were so grungy. Coronado is/was so pristine and sparkling compared to the others, plus you've got views of the Hotel Del AND North Island N.A.S. at the same time! Every time I had a girl in San Diego, and she wanted to go to the beach, day or night, it had to be Coronado, and so over the bridge I'd drive! Great Victorian homes there too, imported brick-by-brick.
