Bay Area Bridges

Bridges

The Bay Area is home to three of the most spectacular suspension bridges in the world, two on the same short stretch of roadway.

Golden Gate Bridge ( San Francisco <> Marin County):  The iconic bridge is a landmark well worth the hype. The scenic overlook at the north anchorage  provides an awesome view of San Francisco and the Bay, as well as public restrooms for those in need. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can also walk out on the bridge and watch the tankers pass underneath.

The Bay Bridges (San Francisco <> Oakland): The new Bay Bridge segment between Oakland and Treasure Island is the newest major landmark in the SF Bay Area. Westbound, driving from Oakland to San Francisco, the toll is collected at Oakland anchorage.
