Coronado, California -- Ferry Landing Marketplace in Coronado is a shopping center and launch point for ferry trips between Coronado Island and San Diego mainland. Through there are land routes to the island, the ferry offers an enjoyable, direct trip to downtown San Diego harbor area, Amtrak station, Seaport Village and the Convention Center.

A ferry operated by San Diego Harbor Excursion, a company that's been in operation on San Diego Bay since 1915, shuttles between the Broadway Pier in downtown San Diego and The Ferry Landing Marketplace on Coronado, running every hour all day from approximately 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. (later on weekends). The price is less than $10 round trip, making it a wonderful entertainment value.  Tickets can be purchased near the departure dock at a local shop that posts a sign about ticket sales.

Special events throughout the year include a Jazz Festival in June, Santa's arrival by ferry in December and an authentic Farmer's Market every Tuesday from 2:30 ­ 6:00 p.m.

Shops, art galleries, restaurants, eateries and palm tree-lined walkways with reflecting ponds surrounded by colorful flowers make this shopping center a fantastic place to enjoy.

The nearest hotel to the ferry landing and ferrry is one that we really like, and you can actually walk to on foot. The Coronado Island Marriott Resort is a beautiful bayfront resort. Swimming, dining and rooms on the bay all offer romantic views during the day, and reflecting city lights at night.
