Aquatic Park Beach

Highlight • Beach

Aquatic Park Historic District is a National Historic Landmark and building complex located on the San Francisco Bay waterfront within San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park.
Its sandy beach is one of the cleanest in the state and best places to take an open water swim close to Downtown. There are showers as well as two boat/swim clubs which are open to the public for about $10 to use showers/saunas and change rooms, a municipal pier, restrooms, concessions stand, stadia, and two speaker towers.
The District's San Francisco Maritime Museum building was built as a bathhouse in 1936 by the WPA; in Streamline Moderne style, its interior is decorated with fantastic and colorful murals. The Steamship Room illustrates the evolution of maritime technology from wind to steam, and there are displays of lithographic stones, scrimshaw, and whaling guns and photo-murals of San Francisco's early waterfront. A visiting-attractions gallery hosts exhibitions.
In front of the Maritime Museum is a man-made lagoon on the site of the former Black Point Cove. To the west is the horseshoe-shaped Municipal Pier, which was voted SFWeekly's Best Place to Go Fish 2009. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1987.

Fenced area for protection of nesting birds has also preserved a more natural looking beach vegetation not trampled by hordes of tourists

Presidio Promenade

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

In the 80th jubilee of the Golden Gate Bridge we were back for the SF Marathon here. Every time a great experience. And for the third time I'm drawn by mountain bike to "Mount Tam". Every time a strenuous day trip. But there are many beautiful routes where the MTB was invented. And every time it's just awesome!

Fort Baker

Highlight • Historical Site

Fort Baker is a historic army post located in the Marin Headlands. The post, built between 1902 and 1910, is one of the park’s best examples of the army’s “Endicott Period” military construction, named after the late 19th century Secretary of War, William C. Endicott. Mostly transferred to civil purposes since 2000 including hotels, the Children's Discovery Museum, etc., the U.S. Coast Guard Station Golden Gate, located at Horseshoe Cove, is responsible for search and rescue missions, homeland security, maritime law enforcement, maritime environmental protection and boating safety. The Travis Air Force Base continues to operate the Sailing Marina Center at the Presidio Yacht Club. nps.gov/goga/learn/historyculture/fort-baker.htm

This large, open grass area has a great view of the Golden Gate Bridge. During World War I, it was home to the barracks, and then served as an airfield. Today, it's open to the public for picnics and sightseeing.
