Day Trips & Destinations
We are in the heart of beautiful Marin County. Of course San Francisco is fun, and a quick drive or Ferry ride away, but check the weather! If it’s cold and foggy in the City, there’s plenty to do in sunny Marin!
9 miles to the North, Sausalito is a classic destination, with unparalleled views of the SF skyline, touristy trinket shops and some hidden gems.
For a real treat, try the famous Sushi Ran on Caledonia, make the effort to find Fish, enjoy happy hour at Seafood Peddler, play a round at Bar Bocce, have a beer and a fried chicken sandwich at the Joinery. Keep driving through town and make a loop into the Marin Headland.
As always, CHECK THE WEATHER! Bay Area Micro-climates can bring 4 Seasons in a day. Anywhere near the coast has a chance or wind and fog, even(especially) if it’s 90 degrees inland

You are so close! Do not miss the most sublime and beautiful part of the Bay Area Coastline. Plan a full day hike, a short loop, or a day on one of the pristine, serene beaches. Even when it’s “crowded”, it’s not crowded. You can walk for miles on Limantour Beach, hide in a nook on Heart’s Desire Beach.
