Lying along the east side of San Diego Bay, the Embarcadero will appeal to fans of the historic maritime vessels and all things associated with the sea. The many attractions here include the Maritime Museum, U.S.S. Midway Museum, the Seaport Village, and Embarcadero Marina Park. The well-manicured waterfront promenades stretch along Harbor Drive and are perfect for strolling or jogging.
On the north end of the Embarcadero is the Maritime Museum, the highlight of which is the Star of India, a historic 19th century vessel. South of the museum, The U.S.S. Midway Museum - a museum housed in a Navy battleship - has loads of exhibits and a stellar collection of fighter planes. South of the Midway is Seaport Village, which has a collection of novelty shops and restaurants. Embarcadero Marina Park, with its public fishing pier and open-air amphitheater, lies to the south.

This tour rocked! It was very informative and the driver and tour guide were awesome! It really is quite a long tour that show's you most of the Downtown San Diego sites. The guide was great and kept up the info intermixed with jokes so it was not boring for my kids. I took an 11 and 10 year old and they thought it was so cool when we went in the water. The boat portion of the tour is phenomenal. You are able to walk around and take pictures. I definitely suggest this to anyone traveling with kids Continue Reading »
