You can see these from planes departing San Diego Airport, dunes spell "Coronado".

Supposedly a beached whale is buried in one of the O's?

These letters were created by a man with a bobcat and too much time on his hands, according to the official tour.

I'm amazed someone involved with an official tour would be that candid about it. Usually they'd make up some mythic garbage about forlorn love or something.
