Seaport Village - Beautiful Waterfront City Views
The area that is now Seaport Village in San Diego has a bit of a dark history. It was originally known as “Punta De Los Muertos” (Point of the Dead), because it is where sailors who died of scurvy during a Spanish expedition in 1782 were buried, as well as 60 sailors who died from an explosion in the boiler room of U.S. gunboat the Bennington while anchored off H street in 1905. Modern shoppers have no idea they are walking on the site of one of San Diego’s first cemeteries!
Seaport Village covers 14 acres, and is a vibrant waterfront shopping and dining complex with over 70 shops, galleries, and eateries. It features a variety of architectural styles, from Victorian to traditional Mexican, and is designed as a car-free environment with winding paths connecting the buildings. The village offers a range of activities for visitors, from shopping for cruise-ware and souvenirs to enjoying bay-view restaurants and a food court. It also boasts a historic carousel with hand-carved animals dating back to 1895.
Our Seaport Village walk takes you through the main area of the village, past unique shops and restaurants, along the water through Embarcadero Park for views of the Coronado Bridge, Coronado Island, and the bay, and down the boardwalk to the amazing Rady Shell.
