It's a long strip of land running along the bay near the Golden Gate Bridge they call a park. Good place for a long stroll, bike ride or run by the water but that's it.

It can be chilly and windy but the views from Crissy Field are worth bundling up. The Warming Hut has good coffee and a gift shop stocked with high quality, unusual items. Walk out on the pier and chat with the fishermen.

Our toddler loves this beach - she can play in the sand and in the gentle (usually) waves (unlike Ocean Beach, where the waves can be HUGE and scary to allow a toddler to wade in).
