- Gabriella SanninoNovember 2, 2013Best time to come is first thing in the morning 6 or 7 a.m. make sure you go all the way to the end towards the bridge...
- Baker beach is a wonderful site. Perfect for swimming, sunbathing, sports, grilling, and watching sunsets with views of the GGB.
- Edward HomickAugust 3, 2012In my opinion, the best view of the golden gate bridge is at this beach. You can also spot dolphins swimming here sometimes. I've been all over the US and this is my favorite beach in the country!
- AFAR MediaMay 29, 2015Although it might be quite crowded, it offers a nice panoramic view, which includes the Golden Gate Bridge. Come early in the summer if you need to park your car! Read more
- Alex ChenJuly 29, 2018Great, quintessential SF beach to hang out at. There are grills closer to the parking lot. If it's your first time, fair warning that the northern end tends to host nude male volleyball.
- Fodor's TravelAugust 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.
- Alexalyne CosasMay 14, 2015The beach is a fantastic view of the beautiful Golden Gate, but don't be afraid to venture in the wooded areas for some hidden treasures!
- Pei 👻 WenJanuary 8, 2016Dreamy bike ride to the beach while the sun rises is one of the most romantic shenanigans you could pull off in San Francisco.
- Michel BosmaFebruary 17, 2018Such a nice view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Also pretty secluded so it’s nice and quiet, at least in the winter 😊
- Social News NetworkJune 26, 2012If you look carefully in the sand there, there are colored looking rocks. They are in fact sea glass! You could spend all day searching for these and some local shops buy them up to make jewelry.
- Matt HealyDecember 28, 2014The hike along the bluffs over to the bridge is long but full of incredible views.
- HappyfeetJanuary 1, 2016This is the best view of the Golden Gate Bridge! :). .. Esp during sunset, with the crashing waves.. the golden gate view puts a big happy smile on your face!
- Thijs van SchadewijkAugust 3, 2015I like this beach so much. Never busy. The view towards the golden gate is priceless. Just so you know: at the right end of the beach is for nudists.
- Lears FoolSeptember 4, 2015Yes, climb over the rocks to get better views of the GGB. It is worth it.
- A lovely, protected, and somewhat secluded, beach with postcard-perfect views of the Marin headlands, GG Bridge, and incoming ships - enjoy!
- Andrea GiavariniMarch 16, 2014I love the dog-friendly style but, believe me, the clothing optional in the northern part is really awful and at least questionable!
- Alexander WinterApril 28, 2013Bring something in case it's windy, a drink, and some good friends, and then enjoy the beautiful views (on various levels).
- DavidMay 16, 2015Definetely recommend this place. Very scenic view with golden gate in background, took a nap on the beach!
- David HowlandMarch 31, 2016Beautiful views of the ocean and Golden Gate Bridge. Less passable at high tide and you might see the occasional nudist.
- Hamid Alan9aryJanuary 7, 2022I enjoyed walking here.. some people were fishing 🎣 the view was very friendly pretty

- Bennett W WongAugust 8, 2016Definitely a nice spot to cool off during those warm summer days. The view of the Golden Gate Bridge is absolutely fantastic.
- Best place to socialize a shy dog ever! Watch for the dolphins playing near the left of the cove. (towards China Beach) What a treat!
- P KhalingNovember 7, 2015The scenery plus the peaceful sound of the waves. Good for picnic and grabbing although it's closed for the season
- Joanna FlammJanuary 18, 2015Hike along the cliffs above the beach all the way to the Golden Gate bridge. So gorgeous!
- EceJanuary 10, 2016This is one of my two favorite spots in San Francisco. Nothing feels more refreshing than to be accross the ocean & golden gate bridge simultaneously ☺️💕
- Samantha RainsOctober 14, 2013Nobody is letting the Government Shut Down affect going to this beach. It is still beautiful as ever! Child warning: the closer to the Bridge you get the more nudes you will see...
- Leandro Angel SanchezSeptember 9, 2013Hot summer day, great place to take a sunbathing and if you like nudism go ahead.

- Turan YurdakulSeptember 21, 2014It's really hard to swim because of the coldness of ocean, but it's very enjoyable to walk on the beach with the view of Golden Gate Bridge

- Off-leash beach. Not the place for those that don't like dogs. Also, don't leave picnic unattended!
- Srikanth KannanApril 12, 2015The park closes at 7. Great place to get a photo with golden gate as your backdrop.
