Ships of the Pacific Fleet:
San Diego, headquarters of the Eleventh Naval District, is one of the largest and busiest US Navy ports in the world. Many of the Pacific Fleet's cruisers, destroyers, and amphibious ships are stationed here. You can see many of the vessels shown on the right as they enter and leave the harbor. The U.S. Coast Guard, as an element of the Department of Homeland Security, conducts extensive operations out of San Diego. |
