If your time allows, a trip south to Monterey is always worthwhile. While down there, you can visit the famous Monterey Bay Aquarium, see the sights along 17 mile drive, stop and play/eat/drink at the various golf courses that are part of the Pebble Beach resorts, and stroll the quaint streets of Carmel-By-The-Sea.
Andrew's favorite craft brewery known for their foggy (hazy) IPA's.

After visiting the small shops and eats in the SF Ferry Building, take the ferry across the bay and past Alcatraz to Sausalito for some great restaurant and bar options. Our personal favorite is Bar Bocce!
