The Ice Skating Rink In Southern California Where You Can Skate Right On The Beach

Okay, so it’s true that Southern California is not your quintessential white winter wonderland (although you can absolutely find a couple of surprisingly magical and snowy places to enjoy!) However, it is our nearly year-round moderate temperatures and sunny weather that make for some truly incomparable winter experiences - things you can only find and do here. A perfect example is ice skating in Coronado, CA.

Ice skating in itself is something that can be found throughout the country, but on Coronado island, just off the coast in San Diego, you can go skating right on one of the prettiest beaches in Southern California. Where else are you going to find that?!

Enjoy Skating by the Sea at the legendary oceanfront Hotel Del Coronado which is all dressed up in sparkly lights for the season.

Take a spin on the ice while enjoying sweeping views of the golden sandy beach, ocean breezes, gorgeous beach sunsets, and the stunning hotel with its iconic red roof.

Want to take a break from skating or simply sit in a cozy spot and watch the fun while snacking and sipping drinks next to a fire? During winter months, guests can rent a rinkside or oceanside booth at the Frostbite Lounge and enjoy a special menu of bites and cocktails.

The winter season also brings a few other delightful surprises to the beach at Coronado, such as Beachside Igloos featuring a cozy living room setting with a private fire pit for roasting S’mores with your toes in the sand.

The complimentary musical "All That Jazz” Lightshow Spectacular takes place every half hour from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. every night on the Founders Lawn.

Each weekend during December, guests can enjoy classic Movies on the Beach, in addition to several other fun features and activities.
