San Francisco Federal & State Parks

When the weather’s nice, a day in the park is a great way to relax, whether by yourself or with friends. Bring a book, your dog, your children, or your significant other, and if you’re heading to one of the marine parks, don’t forget your fishing pole. Don’t forget that there are also a wide range of city and private parks, which you can find on a local map or travel guide. We may include a page on these in a later post.FEDERALNational Park Service Golden Gate National Recreation Area (partially), includingAlcatrazChina BeachFort FunstonFort MasonFort Miley (partially)Lands EndOcean BeachThe Presidio, including
