If you have an urge to visit the great state of California, you really shouldn’t miss Coronado Island. Located just off the coast of San Diego, this tiny town is unlike any other place on earth. And for more than a century, it’s played home or host to Hollywood celebrities, professional athletes, presidents, the ultra-rich, and even our family. But since selling our house here more than two years ago, we’ve only been back one time. Luckily, we’ve teamed up with Coronado Island Marriott Resort & Spa for a five-day vacation and the chance to highlight some of our locals’ favorite hotspots, hidden gems, and island activities. So if you feel like experiencing the millionaire island that’s not supposed to be an island, this episode’s for you.

ABOUT US

We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience—up close and in person—all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.
