When
talking with San
Francisco natives about Sausalito, they speak of the town as a
distant, foreign land. Although the two cities are only separated
by a few miles, the mindsets of the locals couldn’t be more
different. Most travellers know Sausalito for saltwater taffy and
tourist tat; it’s the place you roll into after cycling across the
Golden Gate Bridge, where Otis Redding wrote “Sitting on the Dock
of the Bay”. The nautical town emulates the French Riviera, where
fishermen rub shoulders with yacht owners and dog walkers. Thanks
to an incredible dining scene and impressive “Frisco Bay” views,
perhaps it’s time to flip the standard order and consider Sausalito
as a base from which to explore San Francisco’s buzz.
