About the Location

Scenic Waterfront Location

Chula Vista Bayside Park is a scenic waterfront park located on the eastern shore of San Diego Bay in Chula Vista, California. The park offers expansive views of the bay and Coronado Island in the distance.

It features a long stretch of shoreline with a small beach area, though swimming is not recommended due to the bay waters.
