Sweetwater Reservoir - San Diego County, California


Visited on 9/15/2018, during a visit to the San Diego area proctoring Drinking Water Operator Certification examinations after the exams I visited two lakes southeast of downtown San Diego.  Sweetwater Reservoir is a 960 acre artificial lake at an elevation of 757 feet above sea level located just east of Chula Vista, California in Bonita about 15 miles east of downtown San Diego. The lake is operated by the Sweetwater Water Authority, and allows only shore fishing on a limited 2.5 mile stretch of shoreline.  Sweetwater Reservoir is formed by the Sweetwater Dam on the Sweetwater River. Construction of the dam was completed in 1888.
