Seaport village is a little touristy area on the marina just west of downtown. There are a few hotels like the Hyatt (now under new management though still called the Manchester) and the convention center. Along the marina itself are shops and restaurants though in winter they don’t stay open too late, but this time of year are lit up at night…

Boats in the marina with the street lights of Coronado Bridge in the distance
You’ll notice the water is pretty calm – the marina itself isn’t directly on the Pacific – Coronado Island (not actually an island, but we’ll come to that later) acts as a huge break.
