Getting to the Bay Area

We recommend San Francisco Int’l (SFO) and Oakland Int’l (OAK) airports for those flying. It takes around 45 minutes to an hour to get to Marin from either airport. Renting a car is a great way to explore the Bay Area and freely get around. The Marin Airporter (SFO) or Airport Express (OAK) are also convenient transportation options to get to Marin from the airport.

Rental Car

Bridge Tolls

Bay Area bridge tolls are assessed electronically through FasTrak. If you are driving from Oakland to Marin or Marin to San Francisco, you will incur a toll. Speak with your rental car agency about payment options. Follow the link to the FasTrak website here for more information.
