Parks & Open Spaces
There are plenty of parks and open spaces to watch the bay and enjoy the waterfront. Northern piers and parks are perfect to watch sunsets over the bridge and visit historic Fisherman's Wharf. Southern parks and areas are great for fishing and family friendly water access.
The Embarcadero Promenade stretches from Fisherman’s Wharf to Oracle Park. The Blue Greenway goes through the south from China Basin to Heron’s Head Park, all the way to South San Francisco. The Promenade is part of the San Francisco Bay Trail, connecting 500 miles of public paths across the Bay Area.
Planning a gathering? Some of our parks and public spaces can be rented for events and parties. Visit Special Events for locations and permit application.
