****As of July 2021 beach access is closed due to construction on Treasure Island *****
Address: 267 Treasure Island Rd, San Francisco, CA 94130
Parking: Park at the lot on 9th Street near the Great Lawn, approx. 37°49'23.1"N 122°22'30.6"W. There is a closed parking lot at the beach. You will have to park at the Great Lawn lot. Closer lots are either only 20 minute parking, or permit required.
Hours: Sunrise to Sunset
Type: Swim
Best time to visit: Summer to escape the heat and go for a swim
Regulations: No dog regulations posted, but I have seen this listed as a dog-friendly beach on other websites. The regulation sign at the entrance does not mention dogs.
Description: This is a great, little-known beach. Try to keep it a secret! The water is surprisingly warm, the waters are very calm (barely any waves), and it has great views of the Bay Bridge. It seems that only locals know this beach, so we haven't seen many people here. This is our new favorite beach and it's definitely worth checking out. Currently the parking lot is closed, and the closest parking is at the lot near the Great Lawn. It's about a 0.6 mile walk to the beach. Walk along the water at Avenue of the Palms, then you'll have to cross the street (careful here), up a small incline, and you'll see the park entrance marked by 3 yellow pillars closing off the parking lot. Walk into the parking lot, follow the path, and you'll have to walk down a long stretch of about 50 wooden stairs to reach the beach.
There are water fountains and a trash can near the parking lot, but the restrooms are currently closed.
