The Pacific Ocean! Most bay area tourist spots like Fisherman's wharf, bay bridge are in the bay. The Ocean beach is the real ocean with waves! You can catch surfers and waves here. Popular tourist spots like Half-moon bay and Santa Cruz are many miles far. This is the closest option if you want to comfort your soles in the Pacific.

Food Scene

Must visit place in San Francisco, if you like chocolates. Banana-split ice cream is awesome! There could be 15-20 minute long lines on weekends. But it is the best place in the city to get the tourist vibe. Walkable from home, if you would like to burn off those calories.

Best place to eat fresh oysters and sea food straight from the bay. Try local oysters and anchovies. Beautiful outdoor seating. Be prepared to stand in line for about 10-15 minutes most of the times as it is very popular. The line moves quickly.

Iconic Structure built in 1933. many murals celebrating common people of the city. Take the elevators up to get best city aerial pictures of the city. Best way to get up there is walking(climbing) Filbert Steps(in front of Levis Plaza), and come downstairs by Greenwich steps( just the next block). Best everyday workout, if you like outdoors.

The iconic symbol of San Francisco(like Eiffel Tower for Paris), all Hollywood movies depicted in San Francisco never get enough of it. It is a long walk by the Embarcadero via Pier 39, through presidio, via Marina and across the bridge. Or you may take a bike rental at Pier 39 or Ferry Terminal.

On the way to Golden Gate Bridge by the marina. Circa 1915. Must visit place to take great pictures of sculptures, and nice easy stroll around a small lake. You would see brides and wedding photographers all the time. Probably the best place to see well dressed women and men of the city dressed for the camera/occasions.

Row of Victorian houses called "Painted ladies". Can also see sunbathing modern hippies at the Alamo Park (without the guitar or song ) on Sunny afternoons. You can listen to "Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair" to get in the mood.
