Mt. Livermore via North Ridge Trail
Unless you own a boat or a kayak, this adventure requires a ride on the Blue and Gold Ferry from Pier 41 in San Francisco. But let’s be honest, that’s actually half the fun. Who doesn’t love a ferry ride?

Catch the Sunset at Swedes Beach
This is a small tucked away beach in Sausalito, CA. Being in the bay, it has very calm waters and is easy to swim in, though the water will be very cold. There are pilings in the water that are remnants of the old piers. It is a great beach to watch the sunset at.
There is very limited street parking nearby.
Headlands Ride to Point Bonita Lighthouse
The Headlands are a quick ride over the Golden Gate. On the ride, you'll see wildflowers, rugged coastline, and the Point Bonita Lighthouse.

This spot allows you to capture views of the Golden Gate as well as Angel Islands, and the East Bay. There are 4 designated viewpoints along Conzelman Rd on the way up to Haw...
