Coronado, on a peninsula in San Diego Bay, is a dynamic resort city and home to about 24,000 with a U.S. Navy base. This July Fourth marks the 73rd Independence Day parade in the city.

People of all ages—locals and visitors—lined the city’s main street to cheer on the over 100 groups of parade participants. Military groups got the warmest and loudest cheers.
