One of the Port of San Diego's 23 parks, Grand Caribe Shoreline Park is located near the Coronado Cays neighborhood on an artificial peninsula in southwestern San Diego Bay. At 2.4 acres, it provides recreational public access to the coastline. Since the construction of the peninsula in the 1960s, Grand Caribe’s eastern shoreline has experienced chronic erosion that poses a threat to the park, local habitat, and public access for the community. To temporarily manage the erosion, the Port has exhausted short-term solutions including the placement of 240 burlap sandbags along the shoreline. Now, long-term sustainable solutions are needed to protect the park, safeguard the existing habitat, and maintain public access. Community Input Join the Port project team at a public workshop and provide feedback to shape the future of Grand Caribe Shoreline Park. DATE: Tuesday, April 29 TIME: 5 p.m. LOCATION: Coronado Cays Yacht Club, 30 N Caribe Cay Blvd. N, Coronado, CA 92118 The project team will provide a brief presentation about the shoreline’s current vulnerability to erosion and discuss concepts designed to reduce erosion, provide shoreline stability, and maintain public access with minimal impact on adjacent habitat. Following the presentation, participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide input on the potential nature-based design concepts with the project team. Public feedback will help inform a preferred design concept that will be presented for additional input at a second workshop in mid-2025. The Port will then refine the final concept and develop engineering design drawings for implementation. PROJECT BACKGROUND The Grand Caribe Shoreline Park Erosion Improvements Project will help the Port achieve a long-term, nature-based solution by working with nature rather than against it to help stabilize the coastline for generations to come. This project is a vital part of the Port’s promise to enrich the relationship people have with the dynamic waterfront and benefit the quality of life for generations to come. A coastal site assessment has been completed to inform future shoreline stabilization efforts. To accompany the assessment, the Port is launching a technical design study to identify and receive input on possible long-term solutions for future erosion at Grand Caribe Shoreline Park. The Port is committed to engaging the public through a series of public workshops that will help find the best solution to minimize erosion while also preserving the local habitat. For questions about the project, please contact Timothy Barrett at the Port of San Diego by phone at 619.686.6544 or by email at tbarrett@portofsandiego.org.
