San Francisco is a cultural wonderland where custom, tradition and history are preserved, celebrated and shared. Surrounded on three sides by the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, the city’s compact 46 square miles crowd the tip of the peninsula. Sixteen rivers flow from outer California into the San Francisco Bay, where boaters, kayakers, and fishermen find no shortage of enjoyable aquatic activity.

Almost everyone who comes to visit spends a little time at Fisherman's Wharf, where quaint waterfront marketplaces include The Anchorage, The Cannery, Ghirardelli Square and PIER 39, and the famous fish market. Another great spot to visit, is Ocean Beach on the western edge of town. To the north, across the Golden Gate Bridge, lies Marin County, home to the charming Mediterranean village of Sausalito and the towns of Larkspur and Tiburon. Just 17 miles north is San Rafael, home to the Frank Lloyd Wright designed Marin Civic Center, and Mt. Tamalpais State Park, full of those notoriously large redwood trees.

The East Bay is the home of communities like Oakland, Berkeley and Alameda where you will find Jack London Square, Lake Merritt, the famously liberal University of California at Berkeley, Joe DiMaggio's hometown of Martinez, and the tranquil communities of Benicia and Vallejo. The nearby wineries in Dublin, Livermore and Pleasanton make this area a destination for wine lovers. To the south along the Highway 1 coastline lies Pacifica, Half Moon Bay and Princeton-by-the-Sea, perfect for nature or romantic getaways.
