Connecting San Diego's Commercial Fishing EcoSystem
The world of commercial fishing in San Diego began in Pt. Loma’s harbor over 100 years ago and serves as the longest operating working waterfront dedicated to this industry.
The Pt. Loma Commercial Fishing Alliance is a collaborative of working commercial fishermen and the ancillary businesses that stimulate the region’s blue economy.
