The Community of Sausalito

Sausalito, CA is among the few cities in the greater Bay Area that will let you let your hair down and relax completely while keeping you entertained and enchanted throughout your stay. Known throughout the San Francisco Bay Area for its many restaurants and the choicest shopping and art galleries, Sausalito has a wealth of options when it comes to entertainment and also allows for pleasant evenings and strolls along the water that will leave you feeling relaxed and at peace.

Sausalito residents take great pride in their city and this is reflected in the well kept parks and waterfront vistas, the spirit of cooperation that is evident throughout the small city, and the friendly atmosphere that is all but pervasive in the shop owners and residents around town. Take a walk through downtown Sausalito and you are likely to feel at home within minutes whether you have been there before or area a first time visitor.

The seasonal events such as the gingerbread house tour during the holiday months and the fireworks displays over the water at other times of the year breed a special sense of community and participation that is unusual for a city near such populated larger cities. Finding yourself at home at one of Sausalito’s celebratory events is a comforting experience to say the least.

Dining options for residents and visitors in Sausalito are so numerous that making a decision can be difficult at times. There is ample fresh seafood, a fact for which the area is famous, and many fine dining restaurants for that special occasion or a night out on the town. If you are looking for variety, there are restaurants of every type ranging from Mexican and Mediterranean to Italian, French, and American cuisines and most have been serving up happy diners for years in Sausalito. Because of the beachside atmosphere and heavy vacation use of the downtown area, Sausalito is known as one of the best café and breakfast restaurant areas in the entire North Bay and has many restaurants and bakeries to get fresh pastries and breakfasts that are unrivaled in the Bay Area.

Accessibility to some of the most famed and scenic outdoor activity areas in the State of California, Sausalito also has a vibrant and active outdoor and exercise community. From bicycling to running, hiking to yoga, there are groups, classes, and rental merchants available for everything from biking to kayaking and anything in between. With Muir Woods and the Marin Headlands so close by, it is simple to get out and experience the North Bay natural wonders when you are in Sausalito.

With pleasant weather most of the year, high property values, and incredibly scenic views throughout the downtown area, it is no wonder that Sausalito is consistently ranked amongst the top cities in the Bay Area to both live in and to visit. The residents enjoy beautiful public parks and spaces, access to wonderful public and private schools, and easy access to the neighboring communities as well.

The next time you are headed north from San Francisco, stop off and take a break in Sausalito. If you are coming to the area to visit, take a look at our travel guide and see why staying in Sausalito may be the perfect fit for you during your next vacation!
