Fort Funston: Ocean Cliffs, Trails & Paragliders! 🪂🌊

Fort Funston is truly one of San Francisco’s most breathtaking destinations. Once a military base, it’s now part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, famous for its sandy trails, dramatic cliffs, and wide-open beaches. The path down to the beach is a bit steep but totally manageable—and the views of the Pacific Ocean and the distant city skyline are absolutely spectacular. 🏞️🌆 Dogs absolutely love it here, running freely across the shore, playing in the waves, and socializing with other four-legged friends. We even spotted several paragliders soaring gracefully above the cliffs, their colorful canopies adding a sense of adventure and magic to the scene. It’s this mix of wild nature and human energy that makes Fort Funston so special! 🐕🪁 Whether you're hiking, birdwatching, flying a glider, or simply soaking in the ocean breeze, this place offers a refreshing escape from the city—without having to travel far. Bring comfortable shoes, a camera, and maybe a picnic. Sunsets here are unforgettable! 🌅🧺 Highlights: 🛤️ Scenic sandy trails with ocean views 🏖️ Expansive dog-friendly beach 🪂 Popular paragliding spot 📷 Perfect for photography & relaxation #FortFunston #SanFrancisco #HikingTrails #Paragliding #DogFriendly #NatureEscape #GoldenGateNRA
