Well while yes it is in the vicinity of San Diego ( across the bay bridge ),
if you were to suggest it is San Diego, welll you'd get an earfull!

Coronado High is the High School that Jim Morrison went to. His dad was the commander of NAS North Island.

And my high school sociology teacher and the marching band teacher was Bob Demmon of Johnny and the Astronauts ( eventually just The Astronauts ). He was the bass player of that surf band.

So little did I realise or even suspect that I was immersed in tiki/surf culture.
