Sausalito: Marinas & Scenic Walks

The scenic ferry ride from San Francisco's ferry building is a wonderful way to arrive at the seaside town of Sausalito in Marin County. This 30-minute boat ride has been called one of the most exciting ferry rides in the world. It offers sensational views of Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Angel Island before arriving in the peaceful harbor of Sausalito. Sheltered from the fog by the rolling hills of the Marin Headlands, Sausalito has pleasant sunny weather and idyllic scenery.

Visitors will enjoy spending a leisurely afternoon strolling the historic downtown of Sausalito, an inviting place for window shopping and al fresco dining by the marinas. The town's quaint, pastel-painted, Victorian-era buildings are filled with interesting boutiques, art galleries, ice-cream shops, cafés, and restaurants. Another of Sausalito's highlights is the walking path along Bridgeway, which features views of the yacht-filled marinas and San Francisco skyline. This pedestrian pathway is one of the best places to visit in the SF Bay Area for vistas of the bay and The City.
