Location Information

San Diego's Regal Landmark

The Hotel del Coronado

Here are all the details for this FAVORITE spot for beach photography!

Meeting Place

Typically, I meet clients at Lifeguard Tower 2C near the Avenida del Sol cul de sac. See the map below for the location (far right side of the image).  The Hotel del Coronado is located at 1500 Orange Ave, Coronado, CA 92118. Here’s a Google pin for the lifeguard tower

Parking

Normally, free street parking is available on Avenida del Sol or on Orange Avenue/Strand just south of the Avenida del Sol intersection. If you can’t find parking on the street, paid parking is available in the underground parking lot at the Hotel del Coronado.

Bring

Please remember to bring a towel and change of clothes. My clients often get wet! If you have young children, bring a snack and special treat (aka bribe).

What to Wear

Please refer to my styling guide. I will email you the password to access Style & Select.

Shoes, etc.

I recommend flip-flops that you can kick off when you get to the sand. We don’t worry about “real shoes” for beach sessions. I’ll also ask you and your party to remove gum, hats, hair ties on wrists, sunglasses, and smart watches/FitBits.

Dinner Options

There are several restaurants on site at the Del and others nearby. My favorite for authentic, casual, family-friendly Mexican food (with delicious queso for your chips) is Miguel’s Cocina. Here’s the scoop on dinner ideas. Again—bring a towel and change of clothes!
