Tour to Cabrillo National Monument San Diego: Enjoying a Spectacular View of the Bay and City

Do you want to be on top of the world? Not exactly, but almost the same feeling is felt when you will stand beside the Cabrillo National Monument. On one side you can enjoy the splendid view of the San Diego Bay and on the other the grandeur of the Pacific Ocean.

The national park situated on the southern-most end of the Point Loma is surrounded by the Pacific on the west, the city on the north and the bay on east. It is a paradise for one who seeks solitude and inward reflection.

You can enjoy a bird's eye-view of the harbor and the city from the monument. There are numerous highlights of the park, which will leave you enchanted after the tour.

The Cabrillo National Monument Nature Center has a small theater that displays films related to the history of the park.

The monument is also popular for its hiking and tide pool activities. In addition to the monument, the Old Point Loma Lighthouse is also very famous. You can find your way inside this lighthouse, to the well-maintained living quarters of the lighthouse keeper, in the same touch as it used to be in the 1880s. From the lighthouse a foot-path takes a a beautiful pathway towards the ocean.

One can enjoy the breathtaking views of North Island, Coronado, the Bridge and even Mexico.

The Bayside Trail is a great place for hiking enthusiasts. It descends across the San Diego Bay on the eastern slope and then turns back.

You can catch the Point Loma Tide Pools on low tide and enjoy a nice time outside.
