Review:
Stinson Beach is a stunning pristine beach near San Francisco, located within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area in Marin County. The National Park Service-operated beach, which is located approximately half an hour from the Golden Gate Bridge, is accessible from Marin City via daily beach bus service and is known as one of the Bay Area's top day-trip getaway spots. Gorgeous swimming beaches are among the most pristine beachfronts in the Bay Area, with ample opportunities also offered for surfing fishing, beach volleyball, and hiking. Cold waters create foggy atmosphere year-round, making for beautiful scenery against the backdrop of the nearby Muir Woods National Monument and Mount Tamalpais.
