What to do and see in Marina District, California (CA): The Best Outdoor Activities

February 2, 2022 Matilde Konrad

Every neighborhood in San Francisco has its own personality, from the hippie chic of the Upper Haight to the hipster grit of the Mission. The Marina district boasts trendy bistros and postcard-perfect views of the Golden Gate Bridge, while Noe Valley offers quaint and quiet boutiques. Wave hello to the sea lions at Pier 39, and sample local cheese and charcuterie at the Ferry Building. Sit in on a yoga session in Dolores Park or marvel at the Dutch Windmill across from Ocean Beach.

If you are lucky to get a clear day or a day with great clouds it is lovely. It can get chilly here if it is windy.

This huge open space is amazingly popular. Lots of people out and about all day long, walking dogs, throwing frisbees, flying kites, and just walking. Great views of the GG Bridge and the lovely Marina District homes. A huge area.
