ONE OF THE BEST THINGS ABOUT TIBURON BY THE BAY?
ANGEL ISLAND, OF COURSE!

Move your body and relax your mind at Angel Island State Park

Angel Island State Park, located in the San Francisco Bay, is a quick 10 minute ferry trip from the shores of Tiburon by the Bay on the Angel Island-Tiburon Ferry or on the Golden Gate Ferry departing from San Francisco's Ferry Building. Hike or bike the island, set up a picnic, lay on the beach, take in the views, log-off and tune-in.

Bike the Island

Angel Island is perfect for the casual bike rider; the 6-mile Perimeter Trail is a paved route with spectacular views of the San Francisco Bay and everything surrounding the bay. Lots of scenery for not a lot of effort! Rent a bike from Demo Sports in Tiburon or BYO, the ferry accommodates bikes. Or, rent a bike on Angel Island from Angel Island Company.

Hike

Same goes for hiking: you can't beat the Perimeter Trail. Add on a hike to the 788 foot peak for the true summit experience.

Picnic

There is a grassy picnic area on the shores of the island as well as beaches which are protected from the afternoon breeze. You can also customize a picnic with items from Sam's Anchor Cafe, Nugget Markets, Woodlands Market, Rustic Bakery or Caffe Acri.

History

Angel Island has a rich history dating back 2000 years to Coast Miwoks, the original inhabitants of the island. Many historical buildings dot the island, awaiting your exploration.

Fishing

From a pier or the beach, drop your line in the water and see what the saltwater bay serves up.

Escape and Laze

Beaches, benches, a pier, secluded coves and dells...one of the best things about Angel Island is the feeling that you're away from it all. Find your spot and get in the zone.
