A spectacular 360° view of the bay can be had from the summit of Twin Peaks. [[Alcatraz Island]] stands 2.5km off the coast. The island is the site of the famous prison, from which nobody ever managed to escape. The prison, which was closed in 1963, opened to the public in 1973 and now forms part of the [[Golden Gate National Recreation Area]]. Ferries to the island leave from Pier 41 and 43 and guided tours are held every 90 minutes. It is advisable to book. The [[Golden Gate National Recreation Area]] is considered the largest urban park in the world. Visitors should stroll along the Golden Gate Promenade, a 6.5km trail which starts at [[Aquatic Park]] and runs to [[Fort Point]] and [[Golden Gate Bridge]]. A very scenic walk that allows the visitor to admire the Palace of Fine Arts. This semi-circular building, with two large pillars at its entrance, was constructed in 1915. The [[Golden Gate Park ]]to the west of the city, is one of the most beautiful town parks in the city. The park administration at McLaren Lodge provides information and detailed maps. Guided walks are organised every week-end from May to October. The park houses: the [[Conservatory of Flowers]], a large greenhouse with tropical plants and flowers; the [[San Francisco Asian Art Museum]] with a vast collection of Oriental art and the Japanese Tea Garden, a delightful Japanese garden with wooden bridges, ornate arches, pagodas, lakes and statues of Buddha.

This puts you on the Great Highway, a divided boulevard running right along the ocean. Stop in at the Beach Chalet and Brewery [http://www.beachchalet.com] at the north end of the Great Highway, and take in some music, a great beer, and a meal, along with great views of the ocean.
