Fort Baker is a 35 acre former Army post in 1905 and located north of the Golden Gate Bridge Marin headlands. Fort Baker is named under former U.S. Senator from Oregon Edward Dickenson Baker. In 1850, President Fillmore named Fort Baker the Lime Point Military Reservation for logistic support facilities and coastal defense of the Golden Gate.
It’s a great spot for fishing, crabbing off the Pier at Horseshoe Cove. Fort Baker have a sailing and boat rentals available in the small beach harbor. And your kids can learn and be entertain by bringing them to the Bay Area Discovery Museum which is an indoor/outdoor children’s museum located in fort Baker. Great area to walk along the boat docks and bluffs with an amazing views of the Golden Gate Bridge. There are accessible public restrooms or portable toilets available by the Pier. Overall it’s a great place to just relax, have fun and take pictures of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and the City of San Francisco.
