Explore Coronado Beach
One of the primary reasons for visiting Coronado is to experience our world-class beach. In 2012, Dr. Stephen Leatherman, Director of the Laboratory for Coastal Research, ranked Coronado Beach as the best beach in the United States. The Travel Channel also considers it one of America’s finest beaches. What makes it so special?
Some say it is the soft and clean sand. Others rave about the calm waves that make swimming, boogie boarding, and body surfing so much fun. But just about everyone loves the fact that the beach is never crowded, even during the height of the summer vacation season.
We're Just One Block from the Beach

Coronado's Central Beach, which is the closest beach from the Hotel Marisol, hosts the main lifeguard tower, six beach volleyball courts, restrooms and showers. North Beach also features restrooms and showers as well as eight public fire rings. The entire mile long beach is patrolled by lifeguards via automobiles or from lifeguard towers.
