The Embarcadero Marina Park is a lovely place whether it is for a special event like the ASAE Welcome Reception or a family picnic. While the park is often closed for private parties, there are a lot of times when visitors and locals can enjoy the San Diego Bay while watching the boats sail or cruise by.
Located on the north end of Harbor Drive, through the Seaport Village shopping area, this really is a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the sea breeze through your hair. The park faces across to Coronado providing a nice backdrop for photos.
If you are looking for a nice location for a private function, I would highly recommend considering the Embarcadero North or South areas. In fact, it appeared that there was a wedding reception going on across the way over at the north park.
There is limited parking, requiring that you find someplace in the Seaport Village area. It's an easy and short walk from there, so enjoy your seaside stroll!
