Things To Do
Fish.
A great place to grab a bite in Sausalito- so fresh, with a focus on sustainably sourced ingredients, and right by the water.
Joinery
Great water-side location for lunch in Sausalito! One of John and Annika's favorite casual spots on the water to stop for beer and pub-food. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating (on the dock).
Smitty's Bar
This bar has nearly 100 years of history on Caledonia Street in Sausalito. Open until 2 AM most nights, Smitty's is an excellent choice for continued celebration after Friday's Welcome Party ;)
Taste of Rome
A fun, Italian cafe near Sausalito's waterfront with indoor and outdoor tables. Great place to stop for coffee and continue strolling along the harbor.
Bay Model Visitor Center
Check out the Bay Model! The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Bay Model is a working hydraulic scale model of the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta System.
Rodeo Beach
Rodeo Beach is a beautiful pebbly beach that John and Annika have visited countless times over the years. Down the hill from Battery Townsley and nestled between Fort Cronkhite, and the Marin Headlands Visitor Center, Rodeo Beach is a great place to start a day's visit in the Headlands. Also a stone's throw from Sausalito.
Comforts
Since 1986, this homestyle cafe has been serving seasonal breakfast, brunch & lunch fare in Marin County. John and Annika always grab a to-go carton of Comfort's signature Chinese Chicken Salad for lunch!
Tennessee Valley Trailhead
If you are looking for an easy, hour or so hike through CA coastal native plants and wildflowers, and a (chilly) dip in the ocean, check out Tennessee Valley Trail.
Marin Country Mart
Highly recommend grabbing a bite at Souvla, the Greek eatery, or breakfast at Rustic Bakery, and take a stroll through their open air shopping "village" right on the bay.
Bay Area Discovery Museum
If you’re looking for a kid friendly activity, we highly recommend this! Both Annika and John have fond memories of visiting the museum as children. Also it’s next to Travis Marina, the reception location!
