Coronado (Spanish for "Crowned") is a resort city located in San Diego County, California, United States, across the San Diego Bay from downtown San Diego.[5] It was founded in the 1880s and incorporated in 1890. Its population was 20,192 in 2020,[6] down from 24,697 in 2010.[7][8]

Coronado is a tied island which is connected to the mainland by a tombolo (a sandy isthmus) called the Silver Strand. The explorer Sebastian Vizcaino gave Coronado its name and drew its first map in 1602. Coronado is Spanish term for "crowned" and thus it is nicknamed The Crown City. Its name is derived from the Coronado Islands, an offshore Mexican archipelago.[9] Three ships of the United States Navy have been named after the city, including USS Coronado.
