History

California Coast was founded by a group of educators in 1929,. Its founding members included employees of Solar Aircraft, AT&T and San Diego Gas & Electric. Today, California Coast serves residents who work or live in San Diego or Riverside counties.[3]

It is part of the CO-OP interbank network, with access to over 30,000 ATMs in the U.S. and Canada. Through that Network, the firm also offers CO-OP Shared Branches, which gives members access to more than 5,400[4] nationwide branch locations.[5]

CalCoast Open Air Amphitheater

On January 1, 2014, the firm purchased the naming rights to San Diego State University’s on-campus amphitheater which will now be called The Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theater.[6] Formerly called The Greek Bowl and The Open Air Theatre, the amphitheater opened in 1941 and is one of San Diego's longest running outdoor venues.[7] Currently, it serves mainly as a venue for live music and comedy acts.
