Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo landed at San Diego Bay in 1542, the first time that Europeans had set foot on what now is known as the West Coast. Many visitors visit simply to enjoy the mesmerizing view of San Diego Bay and the Pacific Ocean. The park has one of the best harbor views in the world! The skyline of downtown San Diego, framed by the Cuyamaca mountains, serves as a backdrop to the bay. To the south visitors can see Mexico across the glistening waters of the bay, and to the west the Pacific ocean extents to the horizon. Four hundred feet below the park it is likely to see sailboats, commercial ships, and ships of the U.S. Navy's Pacific Fleet glide in and out of the harbor entrance.
