Brisbane - all beaches

The Tennessee Valley Trail is a great way to experience nature and the beach simultaneously. The trail is approximately 1.75 miles long and is definitely worth the trek. Beach enthusiasts will appreciate the various types of beach sections and the surrounding rocks, including small and coarse sand and stones. It's a stunning spot to spend the day, and during low tide, you can explore the areas behind the massive rocks. There is also a pond nearby where you can see ducks and geese. Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed on this trail. There are two ways to get to the beach: one involves climbing a hill, while the other is the Lower Spur trail, which is only open seasonally due to winter closures and high pond water. After walking a half-mile, you will reach a fork in the path. The left trail is flat, while the right-hand trail has a wooden fence and offers fantastic views. If you prefer not to climb, follow the Lower Spur trail, which is easy and flat. However, the final stretch of the trail is steep and rough, so be prepared to carry a stroller if you bring one. Vault toilets are available at the parking lot and near the beach. The parking lot is partially open on weekends due to renovations and fills up quickly. You may need to park elsewhere and walk up to the trailhead, so factor that into your trail length. Additionally, there are trails that lead to Rodeo Beach, which is about a three-mile hike.

This serene beach is a hidden gem with breathtaking trails and stunning vistas. The month of July brings a vibrant display of African lilies, which entices countless tourists to its shores. You'll relish the tranquility of this secluded paradise, away from the hustle and bustle of the more popular beaches.

It's a stunning place to socialize. My family has owned the green house and the one adjacent to it for generations, which is where some of my great grandparents were born. The view towards San Francisco has been thoughtfully crafted to enhance the overall human experience.

This beach has a serene atmosphere, with plenty of vibrant individuals to keep you entertained. It's an ideal spot to unwind and enjoy the sunset. However, tidiness can be an issue in certain areas.

This beach is definitely worth the short hike from the free parking lot just south of the tunnels on hwy 1. The old military bunker is really cool and the views are beautiful. Plus, there are plenty of fun things to do.

This charming beach is an ideal spot to admire the captivating tide pools. It's worth noting that outside food is not permitted, which could make it an exciting adventure for young children.
