  • Angel Island State Park: Exploring the Perimeter Trail & Immigration Station
    Angel Island is about 30 minutes off the coast of San Francisco and it has dozens of miles of hiking trails and lots of history. Amie and I took a trip over to explore it and really enjoyed all of the amazing things there is to see on the island. Be sure to plan more time to explore then we did though!

    I'm camping her right now. Do note there are several campsites here. You can also grab the ferry from Tiburon which is $12 and it takes about 15 minutes to get across. It's great to hike here after everyone leaves. It's like your own private island and with all the old abandoned buildings it's really cool.

    There is also a Nike missile site on the north side of the Golden Gate bridge in the Marin Headlands. On weekends its staffed by volunteers and they actually raise the missile into firing position and lower it into the "garage" underground. It's pretty cool! Great video.

    First, the animals at Pier 39 are California Sea Lions; Pinnipeds in the family Otariidae - distinct from true seals(phocids) and the walrus (odobenids). You can also get to Angel Island from Tiburon. Adult round trip $15. angelislandferry.com
