World class views at sunset. The scene across the bay from Bali Hai’s dock towards Downtown SD is one of a kind.

What an amazing place to spend the day! You can enjoy everything from scenic water views, shopping in one of the many charming stores, a bicycle tour, engaging with the street performers, or touring some of the incredible historic sites. Definitely a place you should visit if in the San Diego area and very fun weather you're alone or with a group.

This is a beautiful bay where you can see some awesome Navy ships. The waters cold is great place for a walk and a picnic.

It was fine to check in and stay a day or two to get provisions to continue our trip up the coast. But our neighbors on the city dock were very ?? Alcohol involved excessively. Bathrooms we're fine ,didn't utilize the shower. Cab was around 20$ to the grocery store one way. No restaurant in walking distance that's not spendy . We ate at the Blue Wave and it was about 40$ for 2 for breakfast.

Nice place to talk a walk. The pier was nice, lots of things to see from it. The naval boats were cool and the USE Midway is right there as well.
