We have seen many CONUS and OCONUS military cemetaries. This ranks among the best. The best way for anyone to appreciate the sacrifices of our military veterans is to visit this cemetery and walk the grounds. It is a must see on the way to Cabrillo National Monument.
We were there for a funeral this time but have been there many times to visit the gravesite of a loved one. Always go up to Point Loma and walk to the lighthouse and around bay overlook area as well. Peaceful. Beautiful. Nice walk.
I made an impulsive decision to stop in here on my way back from the Cabrillo National Monument. So glad I did.The peaceful beauty here is something I haven’t seen since visiting the memorial and Normandy American Cemetery in France: perfectly aligned white headstones on beautiful green grass, and a backdrop of blue sky and ocean. Pick a nice day and have your camera ready.
Not only is this place very humbling, the views are unbelievable! You feel like you are flying in a plane when looking out over San Diego.
This cemetery ison a point over looking the bay and ocean. What more could you want for a final resign place. The sweeping views beautiful trees and striking white crosses make me chock up just thinking of it. The grounds are very nicely cared for and maintained. Its interesting to read the dates of the military buried there. Super patriotic place.
Great views of Coronado Island, the ocean, and San Diego from up here!! The property is very well kept.
A national military cemetery set in one of the most beautiful places in San Diego, or anywhere. Both of my parents are here, and we visit regularly to remember them. It's always beautiful and serene. The sheer number of grave sites is a bit overwhelming, and humbling.Freedom isn't free.
Besides the humbling experience, the view of the Pacific was fantastic. Hit it on the way back from Carrillo national monument and tide pools.
A humbling experience walking among the ranks of these service personnel. Wonderful views of San Diego from the cemetary and on the way to the monument.
This is a very beautiful and peaceful place. So many white head stones glistening in the sun on the peninsula of Port Loma.
