Golden Gate National Parks' beaches are among the area's most popular destinations for beach lovers. Ocean Beach most definitely falls into that category. The beach stretches three miles along the western side of the city from Richmond to Sunset. This beach perfectly exemplifies the untouched outdoor beauty of the western part of San Francisco as it looked before it was fully developed. When you take that fact into consideration, Ocean Beach is even more alluring, as the inviting sandscapes and sound of the waves will draw you in, whether the season is warm or cool. In the latter case, you can choose to warm up by grabbing a coffee or latte at Java Beach coffee shop.
At The EndUp, the spirit of celebration goes beyond just having a good time. The overall feel of the establishment is quiet un-establishment, as the nighlife destination continues a 15-year tradition of welcoming everyone in for an excellent time. And by everyone, that means people of every gender, race, and socioeconomic level have a place to feel comfortable without the attitude that can be so prevalent at similar clubs. Excellent DJs spinning your favorite tunes, a crowded dance floor that has a spot waiting for you, an area to chill and shoot a little pool in; these amenities all go to make the EndUp a truly San Franciscan experience!
The Cartoon Art Museum is virtually guaranteed to put a smile on your face as you walk through it and see the nearly 6,000 original items housed in this fascinating facility. The museum received the support of Charles M. Schultz, the creator of "Peanuts," and it was with that impressive blessing that the museum transitioned from a mere idea to becoming the only collection of its kind west of the Mississippi. Located in Yerba Buena Gardens in the city's art center, this popular venue attracts cartoon and comic lovers from all over the world. In addition to the major exhibitions held yearly, the museum also features the very popular bookstore that features several unique items for sale.
