Flowers remember tuna fishermen lost at sea.

Many beautiful flowers are now gathered near the base of the Tunaman’s Memorial on San Diego’s Shelter Island.

Last weekend, the annual Tunaman’s Memorial Mass and Celebration began at St. Agnes Catholic Church in Point Loma. A procession was then made through Roseville to the Shelter Island memorial where a service was held.

The many flowers remember tuna fishermen, particularly of Portuguese descent, who were lost at sea.

Even yesterday, almost a week later, the flowers were still bright and colorful.

I post new blogs pretty often. If you like discovering new things, bookmark coolsandiegosights.com and swing on by occasionally!

I live in downtown San Diego and love to walk around with my camera! You can follow Cool San Diego Sights via Facebook or X.

  1. Thank you, Richard. I didn’t realize until you made this post that the memorial I’ve seen before is dedicated to fishermen who are lost at sea.
