Other Fun Things to Do

Enjoy the scenery on a boat ride out to Alcatraz, the famous "escape-proof" prison in the bay.

Check out Sausalito, a quaint little town where you'll find charming art galleries and arts-and-crafts stores.

Explore the redwood forest of Muir Woods. Take a leisurely stroll through part of the 550-acre National Monument. Within the woods, there are fabled 800-year-old giant coastal redwood trees that rise 250 feet or more.

Head down to Monterey Bay and along the coastal road toward famous Cannery Row.

Take a trip to Carmel, home of artists and craftspeople. Stroll through the delightful village, then visit the Carmel Mission, one of the most popular and historic of the 21 missions built in California from 1769 through 1823.

Get a Taste of Local Flavor

San Francisco has more restaurants per capita than any other city in the United States, and nearly every ethnic cuisine is represented, from Afghan and Indian to Vietnamese. But the city is most famous for its large Chinatown and many Chinese restaurants. With more than 30,000 Chinese occupants, Chinatown is far more than the restaurants and tourist shops many people see at first glance. It's a thriving neighborhood and a great place to enjoy an authentic Dim Sum after a stroll through the neighborhood.
