From Candlestick Point State Recreation Area, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay, the East Bay Hills, and San Bruno Mountain all while relaxing in the peaceful scenery of the park itself. Its location on the western shoreline of the San Francisco Bay provides a variety of recreational opportunities including windsurfing, kayaking, fishing, hiking, picnicking, biking, and bird watching.Candlestick Point SRA was born through the efforts of San Francisco residents organizing for environmental justice in their community. In 1977, Candlestick Point became California’s first urban State Recreation Area, bringing state park values into the city and acting as a gateway for entry to other State Parks. Candlestick Point’s history - from historic wetlands, to landfill, to landscaped park - demonstrates some of the ways in which people can dramatically alter their landscape, and the interplay of natural and built systems within California’s history.
