The 1937 suspension bridge is the symbol of the city. You can walk or cycle across it for views of the bay and the skyline.

Know before you go

Fog often hides the towers in the morning, so aim for the afternoon. Cycling from the city to Sausalito is a classic route.

What to book

A bike rental or guided bike tour across the bridge, with a ferry back from Sausalito.

What to check before you pay

  • Check the fitness level and minimum age.
  • Look at the weather-cancellation policy.
  • Confirm what equipment and safety gear is provided.
