Baker Beach

Baker Beach is a publicly accessible shoreline situated in San Francisco, California, USA. This popular coastal destination is renowned for its picturesque views of the Golden Gate Bridge.

However, it should be noted that swimming at Baker Beach can be perilous due to sizable wave formations and strong oceanic currents. Despite this, it remains an ideal location for strolling, capturing memorable photographic moments with or of the iconic bridge, and accessing the adjoining Presidio hiking trails.

It is worth noting that the vicinity's northern sector is designated as "clothing optional," and visitors should exercise discretion when exploring this area.

Visitor Reviews
