Angel
Island State Park, in the middle of the San Francisco
Bay, is a fantastic sea kayaking destination. Just a few
highlights will be views of San Francisco, Mt. Tamalpais,
and Mt. Diablo; dramatic cliffs, quiet beaches, and historic
sites. All this will be absorbed while you are paddling
a stable, two-person kayak. This trip is ideal for a first-time
kayaker. |
