SAN DIEGO (Jan. 7, 2021) An aerial photo of Naval Base Point Loma in San Diego, CA. The photo was taken from a U.S. Navy MH-60S Seahawk assigned to the Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 14 (HSC-14). (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Austin Haist/Released.)

 

Point Loma has a rich military history due to its natural tactical significance as the only peninsula in the area that guards the surrounding waters. The base was re-designated Naval Base Point Loma in October of 1998, and the six tenant installations were consolidated when commands throughout San Diego were regionalized at that time to better serve the fleet.

Current major commands onboard include Commander Third Fleet, Naval Mine and Anti Submarine Warfare Command, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command, and Submarine Squadron Eleven.
