The sign reads:
"Harbor Lights
No lighthouse kept vigil over the harbor four
centuries ago when Cabrillo sailed into the bay.
There were no channel buoys, fog horns or local
charts to guide mariners safely to anchor. Today,
however, the Coast Guard and the Port of San
Diego provide a full range of navigational aids for
the many military, commercial and privately
owned vessels that use the harbor."
