|
The best way to get to the Cabrillo National Monument - situated right at the end of Point Loma, 10mi/16km from San Diego - is to go via North Harbor to Rosecrans Street, then turn into Cannon Street, Catalina Boulevard and Cabrillo Memorial Drive.
When visibility is good, the National Monument provides a panoramic view as far as La Jolla to the north, the Pacific to the west, Mexico to the south and San Diego County to the east.
