Crime Prevention

The Harbor Police Department patrols San Diego Bay and its surrounding tidelands by vehicle, vessel and on foot. Harbor Police officers work hard to ensure that these areas are safe for our residents, workers and visitors. However, the Harbor Police Department also relies on the public to keep an eye out for things that may seem suspicious. The iWatch my bay Program gives you the ability to report suspicious or unusual activity.

If you work around San Diego Bay and its surrounding areas or if you frequently enjoy its many recreational amenities, you may become accustomed to its normal sites and sounds. If you see something that seems out of place or unusual, don't be afraid to report it. Find a uniformed officer or call 911 and describe what you witnessed.

San Diego Bay's beauty makes it a naturally desirable subject for photographers. If someone is taking photos of secured areas, security cameras, checkpoints and fencing, this could indicate suspicious behavior. Also, if someone asks you questions regarding police patrols, security procedures or checkpoints, please report it.

Your vigilance may assist the Harbor Police Department in is efforts to fight terrorism, smuggling, human trafficking and other crimes.
