San Francisco / The Richmond District in a Day
Leanne
You've seen Pier 39, Union Square, and Fisherman's Wharf. What's next? Do as the locals do and spend the day in the neighbourhood, the true essence of the city.
As a local, let me take you to some of my favourite spots. Spend a day discovering the charm, architecture, and views. Don't worry, I've incorporated food and drinks too! :) Expect to walk for a couple of hours with breaks in between.

A diverse neighbourhood with San Francisco's second Chinatown, Little Russia, views of the Golden Gate bridge, and more. Put on some comfy shoes, pack a few layers, and experience the Richmond District!

Ocean Beach
@fralikbydesign
Head down to Ocean Beach to enjoy the views. The water is really chilly and slightly dangerous so don't try to swim here. Enjoy a leisurely walk on the beach with a coffee in hand from Andytown.

By now you've gotta be kinda hangry...so let's go get some eats. Walk east on John F. Kennedy Drive and exit the park at 36 Avenue. Walk up 36th Avenue to Balboa Street and take a left on Balboa.
