Suggestions for Beach near Presidio National Park, San Francisco

Paige C. • November 19, 2015Beautiful beach with scenic views - perfect for a walk with your pup!

David S. • September 16, 2011To get the classic shot of the bridge from the ocean side, park at Baker Beach and walk along the shore to Marshall Beach, where you can frame the scene with surf on the rocks in the foreground.

Nick G. • September 18, 2011Great location for a BBQ with a perfect view of the Golden Gate bridge. Nice beach and picnic area; within walking distance from the Marina (although the far end of the field is a good 40 min walk)

Fodor's Travel • August 21, 2015The views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin Headlands from this beach are spectacular. These sands are also a recognized nudist spot, so you might catch a game of naked Frisbee on the north end.

Xavier D. • April 10, 2013Best windsurf / kite spot for the magnificent view! The Golden Gate Bridge on the way out... The city skyline up close on the way back!

SFist • August 3, 2014With grassy open space, running and biking paths, room for your canine companions, a real beach and even a surf spot, it has everything your SoCal friends think they can only find in Santa Monica.

Dave • September 11, 2011Walk/run/bike along this nice wide (unpaved) path by the water from the Beach Hut Cafe to Fort Point (about 1.5mi), taking in views of Alcatraz, Crissy Field & the Golden Gate Bridge.

Alexa Jane B. • January 6, 2015Close to Baker Beach and 10 minutes away from the city. The apartments used to be army barracks. This is such a beautiful place!

Adriane Z. • October 7, 2012Nude beach of San Fransisco

james h. • May 6, 2015Easy access to the beach.

Kelly S. • September 9, 2011Make it in to see the fort, it's epic and almost unknown how much history they have stored up in there. Plus a cool view of the city toward North Beach & the bridge. Tap you hands at the runners mark.

CNN • August 6, 2014The tree-filled park packs in wonderful hiking and biking opportunities, sweeping vistas, beaches and marshes. Post-hiking cocktails can be enjoyed at the charming Presidio Social Club.
