i finally got around to exploring a local (i.e., Bay Area) site i’ve always wanted to visit — Sutro Baths<\/a>. the TL;DR for that wikipedia article: the abandoned site of a private baths that burned down and is now part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. i don’t know why i never visited when i lived in that area (just a couple miles away) over a decade ago, but better late than never.<\/p>\n

there’s easy parking on either side of Point Lobos Avenue\u00a0directly to the east of the ruins<\/a>. make your way down via an easy trail from the Lands End Visitors Center.\u00a0from what i can tell, there are no signs that say you can’t climb this or that. however, there are posted warnings that people have been swept away, but if you’re feeling sure-footed, the site is pretty much all yours except for\u00a0certain areas closed off due to wildlife preservation. there can be quite a number of tourists and local joggers, but (at least based on my visit) you still can find secluded spots if you go off the beaten track.<\/p>\n

Spent a little too much time down here on the beach. The tide was coming in fast and I was the only one around. Made it out before my shoes got wet, though!<\/p><\/div>\n

Don’t forget to go through the cave tunnel. I won’t ruin what you’ll find.<\/p><\/div>\n

Old stairs (off limits); the tunnel entrance is visible on the right.<\/p><\/div>\n
