Guides
These are the places we'd actually send a friend. Not everything in the county — just what's worth the drive, the wait, the parking situation.
Looking for dinner? Start with tacos or happy hour. Craving something sweet? Soft serve covers the Straus situation. Weekend plans might mean Friday nights, a trip to Muir Woods, or farmers markets on Sunday or Thursday.
For the day-trip crowd: oysters on Tomales Bay, cheese day in West Marin, or kayaking the bay. Staying closer? We have picnic spots with views, sand volleyball, pickleball courts, and dog beaches with actual leash rules.
Rainy day? Browse the independent bookstores or find a cafe that won't glare at you for staying.
