During the summer months, locals flock to the area beaches, and Ocean Beach is one their top choices. This expansive shoreline extends from the Cliff House to Fort Funston along the glistening Pacific Ocean, making it a great spot to stroll, jog or surf. Anglers often fish the surf, and occasionally it's warm enough for sunbathing - but that's very rare. The water is cold, though, and the rapid currents make it dangerous for swimming or even wading. But don't let the blustery Pacific wind or choppy surf scare you from its beaches. If you want a a real NorCal experience, your trip has to include a walk on Ocean Beach.
