An evening stroll down one of the most scenic beaches gets that much better with a spectacular view of the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance. The setting sun splashes the sky with hints of orange, complementing the red hue of the suspension bridge and the gentle ebb and flow of the white waves breaking along the shore evoke a sense of serenity.

How to get there

N37° 48' 02.0772"W122° 28' 49.1268"

This photo of Marshall's Beach and the Golden Gate Bridge was taken at the top of a set of stairs that lead to the beach. To get here, find parking at either Langdon Court Parking (37.803326, -122.476758) or the neighboring CNG parking lot (37.802608, -122.476118). Next, make your way toward the Battery to Bluffs trail, which is on the southern side of the Langdon Court parking lot. Once you've followed the trail for about 5 minutes, turn right toward a set of stairs marked by a "No pets" sign. Follow the trail down for about 15 minutes (reference the GPS coordinates) and you'll eventually be led to this north-facing viewpoint. Once you reached the viewpoint, have your model walk down to the beach and toward the bridge.
