About Point Loma, CAPoint Loma, CA which is about a quarter of the size of La Jolla and has a small, “fishing village atmosphere,” is defined by a number of unique characteristics. The Point is home to multi-million dollar mansions; The Midway is a bustling commercial zone; Ocean Beach is a laid-back surfer community; Shelter Island is blanketed with yachts, sailboats and sport fishing outfitters; and Sunset Cliffs boasts rocky, yet sandy beaches and one of the best sunset scenes in San Diego. The pride of this community is clearly demonstrated by the well-maintained neighborhoods and quiet streets. The military presence is strong in Point Loma, which is located in close proximity to San Diego International Airport and downtown San Diego. The Point Loma peninsula is where Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo and crew became the first Europeans to set foot in California. Cabrillo National Monument, established in 1913, stands in memorial of this discovery, and provides amazing views of the San Diego Bay. Visit in the wintertime and you may catch a glimpse of the migrating Pacific Gray Whales as they make their way to Baja. | More Local Area InformationCoronado, nicknamed “The Crowned City,” is often referred to as an island, though it is actually a peninsula.
