Art in Public #3 Grand Caribe Shoreline Park, Coronado Island

 

Grand Caribe Shoreline Park 


598 Grand Caribe Causeway, Coronado, CA 92118

 Grand Caribe Shoreline Park is located south of the roundabout on Grand Caribe Causeway. Dogs are allowed on leash at all Port of San Diego parks, however I have encountered many people allowing their dogs off-leash here to swim in south bay. On leash or off leash please continue to clean up after your pet. Far too many dog shit piles left right ON THE TRAIL.  There is limited access to the shoreline. A dirt path winds it way south and around the marina channel for Coronado Cays. Be mindful that a high tide will affect the width of the beach. 
I have observed everything from house finches, Anna's Hummingbird, Great Egrets to Willets while walking the path.
