From San Diego Unified Port District's website:
Embarcadero Marina Park
It's a short stroll to or from Seaport Village to the San Diego Convention Center, the downtown Hyatt (which has incredible views from its top floor lounge) and Marriott hotels, the Gaslamp Quarter and Petco Park. Embarcadero Marina Park is right next door.
Embarcadero Marina Park takes the form of two green "arms" that reach into the San Diego Bay and wrap around the Embarcadero Marina.
The entrance to the marina divides the parks. A walkway extends along the shore, around the marina and past the Marriott and San Diego Convention Center, connecting the two small parks.
You can walk right out of Seaport Village into the Embarcadero Park North. Very popular and sometimes crowded on weekends, picnicing, kite flying and enjoying the spectacular views are popular activities.
