Hotel del Coronado: Skating by the Sea

Q: Are wheelchairs allowed on the ice?

Yes. Ask a Guest Service team member for assistance.1

I’d choose Skating by the Sea for skating beside the Pacific. At Hotel del Coronado, the season runs from 20 November 2026 to 3 January 2027; admission costs US$35–45 with skate hire included.
