Enjoy endless summer in the San Francisco Bay Area

A person kneels on a sandy beach next to a dog with the Golden Gate Bridge visible in the background. It's a clear, sunny day, and gentle waves wash onto the shore beside them. Both look directly at the camera, capturing a moment by the water in San Francisco Bay Area.

Summer might be over, but the sun-splashed days keep getting better. The San Francisco Bay Area sees some of its warmest weather this time of year, so it’s an ideal time to get outside.

Tourist traffic is slower, too, and that means quieter roads, parks and beaches. Make the most of the blue skies and sunny afternoons with a low-key DogCation® staycation. From north to south, here are some terrific Bay Area beach towns known for off-leash fun.
