Wonderful place to take a nice beach side hike, and if you have a well behaved dog you can take them off leash at the beach. Amazing views of the Golden Gate Bridge from below, especially on a clear day. Keep in mind restrooms can easily have 10-15 minute line on a nice day ;)

Crissy Field is one of those places that never gets old. The views here are absolutely iconic you get a perfect look at the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, and the Bay all in one spot.
There’s easy beach access where you can walk along the sand, dip your feet in the water, or just relax and watch the waves.
On windy days, you’ll often see surfers and kiteboarders out near Fort Point, which adds such a cool energy to the area. The paved paths make it great for walking, biking, or just strolling w

Chrissy Fields has always been a pretty nice place to walk, especially if you want to walk your dog and in the recent years they’ve expanded and renovated a lot of it to make it even more walkable and kid friendly as well with some play areas. It’s pretty nice cause they also teach you about preservation in nature and the views are really nice especially on clear days where you can see both the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Berkeley, Oakland, and many other places throughout the Bay Area.

San Francisco has so many parks to choose from! Yet another one, close to the Golden Gate Point View, in the one called Crissy Field. Crissy Field is a former military airstrip that was converted into a public park in 2001. It is located on San Francisco Bay, and offers great views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. The park itself features beaches and areas for picnic. Tip: if you are in a mood for walking, take the path from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Palace of Fine Arts. Very enjoyabl
