How travelers rate it

Know before you go

• Bring sunscreen and water, as shade is limited along much of the route.
• Bike rentals are available at the Coronado Ferry Landing if you don't have your own.
• Binoculars are handy for birdwatching at the Tijuana Estuary.
• Check tide charts if you plan to walk on the beach; high tide can narrow the shoreline.

A bit of history

The Bayshore Bikeway was developed as part of a regional effort to create a continuous 24-mile loop around San Diego Bay. The segment from Coronado to Imperial Beach follows the historic Silver Strand, a sand spit that has long been a recreational corridor.
