Great place to bring our dog

by ed94105

Ocean Beach is a great place to bring your dogs to play with other dogs. There is a small dog group that meets there on Saturdays at 10:00 a.m. Usually around 50 dogs. The dogs can be off leash.

Pacific views and monster waves make San Francisco's largest beach a surfing favorite.

In Short
This sandy strip, totaling four miles of Pacific Ocean shoreline, runs from the famous Cliff House restaurant to Fort Funston at the southern border of the city. Despite the often blustery weather, it continues to be one of the most popular hangouts for sunbathers, joggers and surfers. Swimming is unsafe along this section of the Pacific, though wetsuit-clad surfers are regularly seen braving the riptides.
