A great spot. Beautiful and clean. I highly recommend.

Step into the past of San Francisco and California. See what Sutro saw when he chose the property. He might have been a ruthless developer, but now we can enjoy the spirit of the place. Great place to bring out of towers. Wear your masks!

Great for taking a fresh breath, clear your mind and get a peace of mind. Great for a couple to walk on beach. Just to enjoy a good relaxing day at the beach!

Great hiking and even some shade.Nice trails and spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and the famous Golden Gate Bridge.Parking is still free but can fill uphe fast.Plenty to see and watch the container ships go under the gate.Lots of areas to get lost and have picnic or nap.

Great view, of the coast line, from multiple locations, bring binoculars! Quite the nice, peaceful, well maintained, nature escape. Theres always somewhere to sit, plenty of green grassy areas to picnic on and plenty of San Francisco history, or remnants thereof, to learn about and discuss. The #38 buss, will take you right there, or theres street parking too.

This is one of my favorite places to visit especially when I need to get out of Downtown San Francisco and just relax and clear my thoughts. Very beautiful...almost magical!

It turns out that I picked a good day to head out that way. I wanted to get away from the heat in the east bay, and as it turned out, the immediate coast was the only place where there was no smoke from the various wildfires in the state. I was just here about 5 days before for this same reason. Interesting thing was, that at one point in the afternoon, the temperature was in the mid 60s, while seemingly everywhere else in the bay area was pushing into the 80s and 90s. A brief and pleasant getaway.

Sometimes the fog hangs out here in the morning and u used to be able to get a bite to eat after a hike down to lands end. Now I think the restaurant went the way of the dinosaur but still a beautiful area. Plus ocean beach is right there when your feet start getting tired!

Hiked out to the cliff edges off the mile rock beach trail. So beautiful and what a Sunset!

Beautiful Lookout of ocean beach and start of loop to good views of the Golden gate.

Such a cute park with stunning views of Ocean Beach, the Outer Sunset, and the vast Pacific Ocean. The castle structure is so unique and would definitely be a hit with any kid you bring along to this park. Not to far from Golden Gate Park, Ocean Beach, Sutro Baths, and the Cliff House.

My favorite place to hike in San Francisco!!!My hike begins by parking at the Ocean Beach area between the two windmills (Dutch & Murphy) you see across the street in Golden Gate Park. I make my way across the Great Highway and then head north on the sidewalk/trail. I cross Fulton street and continue north. When I get to Balboa, I cross the street then head East on Balboa. As soon as you pass La Playa, the hike trail begins to your left with wooden steps. I take the trails through Sutro Heights to get to 48th and Point Lobos Ave, cross Point Lobos Ave and continue on Lands end trail across the street.Depending on how fit you are, you can continue until you see Baker Beach. If you do this hike, you walked approximately 2.3 miles. If you dont catch an Uber back, lol, youll have walked a total of 4.6 miles. At a basic stroll, you should be able to get done in under two hours. You can also stop and return sooner. If I only have an hour, I walk out for 30 minutes then come back. Youll figure it out.Through out this hike, there are many spots to take pictures, enjoy!!

Really beautiful lookout spot over Ocean Beach. Awesome sunset spot as well. Right now the grass looks pretty overgrown and yellow but that may be because of the shelter in place changes made to city maintenance programs. Great for an evening stroll to stretch your legs. Car break-ins are frequent in the night time hours here so be careful.

Relaxing and beautiful view of Pacific Ocean . multiple walking trails, very good exercise area and picnic

Ocean beach is beautiful and huge! Plenty of room to find a safe spot during covid and its open now too.

Not a whole lot of people on Sunday. Fun and a great change from staying at home, specially for the children!

Great view of the beach if its not foggy. Otherwise, rather run down looking. Off street parking is a bonus!

Quiet, peaceful, not very crowded. People with friendly dogs. Right next to the ocean. Can be foggy.

A great view down the beach! I am disappointed with the vandalism going back decades that has damaged just about everything left except the foundation of the old house. Still worth a look and we will be back.

A wonderful piece of San Francisco history. Reminder, if you pack items in, pack them out. Plenty of trashcans for your needs

This is a jewel overlooking the Great Highway toward the ocean. I had never been there before and I was very happy I found it. The history of that spot is great its really worth going in hiking around it on a foggy day.

Beautiful spot, with unique views of the windmills of golden gate park and the outer sunset, as well as the waves crashing into Ocean Beach. Very quiet, out-of-the-way neighborhood park. Good place to walk dogs and view beautiful Cala lilies blooming in the wild.

A great little hiking area and park with some incredible views of the coastline and Ocean Beach on a clear day. Well worth a visit and the flowers hidden among the trees here are amazing!

Always a fun place to visit.. parking can be a bit tricky as its a popular tourist attraction

Beautiful flowers here in spring, great spot to enjoy the view of ocean.

Nice big beach. Love to come again on a clear day!

Great views of Ocean Beach and south down Great Highway.

Another magical spot that I only discovered because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Felt like a place in Europe...

I love the views. This place was very calming and fun to walk around.

Too many people and not enough masks. But it was very pretty.

Usually a nice place but the smoke makes it hard to see the view

Perfect spot to doodle around on a nice day.

Fun spot on far west part of SF. Always chilly, windy, excellent hiking and climbing.

Its a beautiful place to just take a stroll. We used to walk it after breakfast.

Absolutely beautiful! BUT VERY CROWDED & NOT ALOT OF PARKING!!

Beautiful serene place best sunset

Nice place to explore whether youre about to hike to the golden gate bridge, or youre coming the other way to take a rest.

Another hidden gem in SF. Small park but full of green & historical feel. Perfect walk from ocean beach & great place for wedding picture.

Love this place and the walk keeps the cardio going. Views of the Pacific to the Bay starting at the Sutro Baths to the “blowhole” and ending near the bridge makes for great photos.

Beautiful place to have an intimate wedding! Very clean.

Great spot to view the SF ocean beach and enjoy it.

Beautiful scenery. Must see.

It was amazing watching the sun set, well enjoying the wonderful weather. There were not many people which made our experience with the ocean and sunset much more personal.

Beautiful beach for walks with your dog

Nice relaxing place. The views leave me in awe every time.

Took my 6yr old daughter out to ocean beach she want to sit by the water so I took her where I use to go when I was a kid bein that I was born & raised in S.F. I told her I will be takin her again

Take a short Sutro Bath trail and enjoy the views

A tiny little park that overlooks ocean beach. On a clear day the views are marvelous and you can see out to the Farallon Islands (look that up if you don’t know what they are- sharks, pacific shelf, bird watching). Loads of locals walking dogs, hanging out, and just enjoying the view.

Sutros at the Cliff House....food was just Ok. Great views though...but NO parking

The sunsets are only second to Maui

Beautiful views, nice walks, picturesque view of Golden Gate bridge

This place is a hidden gem and my favorite part of the city. I’ve had so many clients tell me that they have lived in SF for long, but had never been there.Now that you know about Sutro Heights Park, let me tell you why it’s my No. 1 location for a family photo shoot for K. Sienk Photography.This park is beautiful throughout every month of the year. It changes with the season, but each one has something special about it. The view of Ocean Beach is incredible from Sutro Heights Park. And one of the most amazing things about this location is that it is almost never windy! That is so important when it comes to photos.Pros:No windNot crowdedBeautiful all year roundA variety of different locations in one parkGreat view of the oceanEasy Parking

Best place in the city... The tip of the continent

Its beautiful but and smells good but not when your up the part when you go up

Was a very beautiful and relaxing day! Love the ocean.

Little windy and chilly but a very nice beach. Plus I went during Corgi-con!!

Only complaint is always going to be the trails. The main trails have so much sand you might as well be on the beach and the lesser travelled trails have so much tree debris even my dog has a hard time navigating.

Nice and beautiful place anyone comes to this place goes back with a peace of mind

Beautiful spot to hike when the weather is perfect. Amazing views on a clear day.

One of my favorite views in the city, and a great place to chill out!

It literally feels like you are on top of the world and at the edge of the continent. You can look back at the city or on over the horizon. Such a beautiful place with a rich history with NO crowds

Great hiking area

Great view and nice run..

Good place to hike

Would be an incredible place to have a home

Lots to see, cool place

The view is amazing. Great place to take friends and talk. Pet friendly.

Nice day jogging with the judo team from Cahills, socially distancing while we conditioned.

Stunning beautiful in any weather or climate

Great for sunset watching.

This place is very strange and one of those San Francisco gems that you just have to check out. I have lived here now for years and I still come back here. Its such a strange story of Sutro and his baths and what this place was that you have to take someone from out of town and explain it. Its also fun for kids because the ruins seem more ancient and mysterious than they actually are. My kids thought that this was a Roman camp, which is pretty funny if you think about it.

Nice walks, great view from the top !

Amazing beautiful place

Some of the best views in San Francisco. Amazing overlook of Ocean Beach in a hilltop park. Incredibly peaceful place and a great spot to watch the sunset.

When I moved to this neighborhood, I didn’t think I would love this place so much

Green fields, great view of Pacific Ocean

What a magnificent view of the Pacific Ocean!... I Luv San Francisco but I must leave.

One of our favorite walking places. We go to Ocean beach 2 to 3 times a week. Its so beautiful!

If I told you why it is great, it would no longer be great. Shhhh....

Beautiful park but can be muddy too. Wear hiking shoes for sure.

The most beautiful spot on earth!

Beautiful beach a short drive or bus ride from san francisco

Best viewing of ocean beach especially at sunset

Great view and even better view

Sutro Heights Park is a terrific spot to photograph the sunset over the Pacific. After the sun sets, take a few shots of the western end of San Francisco & the traffic light trails of The Great Highway.

Gorgeous! A lot of free options if youre short on cash. Multiple attractions and a moderate hike. Lots of stairs

Thr view amazing

Loved walking by the ocean. You can walk on the beach or on a walk way if you dont want to get sand on your feet. LOL The restrooms were port-a-potties but they were the flush toilets and very clean. With a place outside to wash your hands. I recommend this beach if youre looking for a beach while in San Francisco.

Its one of the most popular places to visit, I am glad I did

Great day at the beach. Get there early to save a fire pit.

Its a place where my wife and I got married my backs just look at your memories alive the great place tand expect good. Smoked crack before not nice but Lori said gets off.

Great place to be at Sunset time!

Historic place. Dont miss it

Its the best Vista point over Ocean Beach and the Western edge of SF, and little known, so uncrowded.

Amazing view. Some nice trails but be careful they are on a cliff.

Historical site near a long expanse of beach. Nice walk for an afternoon. Was especially nice since San Francisco was in heat advisory, but was about 20 degrees cooler by the ocean

Beautiful views.

Beautiful hikes and scenery. Loved it

Still one of the best views in the city, great place to walk along the shore.

Great view. Nice walk. Way better than going to Pier 39 or the typical tourist traps. Watching the waves, feeling the Pacific Ocean breeze (burr) but making you feel alive and invigorated. Love this City by the Bay - to paraphrase Herb Cain.
