With schools out and warm weather in full swing, you can nearly taste the sea water and feel the sand beneath your toes. There is nothing quite like a day at the beach to forget all your daily stresses. Not everybody has the luxury of escaping to the beach at the end of the work day. Living in Pacifica means sand and sea could be right in your backyard. After all, life is a day at the beach when you live in San Mateo County.
Featured Beach of the Day: Rockaway Beach, Pacifica, CA
Located at Quarry Cove in Pacifica, Rockaway Beach is a San Mateo County gem. Swim, fish, whitewater paddle, boat, hike, golf, picnic, or enjoy the countryside.
Views of Alcatraz and the ocean can be found with an intense hike along the Juan Bautista De Anza Trail or while enjoying a leisurely meal at one of the many Pacifica restaurants. Choose between the finest dining at the most romantic dinner spot in the bay area, Ristorante Portofino, or a laid back 50s style diner with generous burgers, frothy milk shakes and friendly service.
There are sports and recreational activities galore and shops that could keep you going all day long. If you’re a fisherman, test the waters at the Sharp Park State Beach. According to locals, it is the only place to catch salmon without boarding a boat.
Pack up the kids, the dog, or just yourself. Bring along a picnic basket or choose to indulge in a seaside restaurant. Hike the trail or just lay back and watch the clouds go by. Whatever you do, enjoy yourself. Take advantage of all that Pacifica and San Mateo County has to offer. If this sounds like the life that you want to live, I would love to help you find the home of your dreams in Pacifica or any of its surrounding areas. I’m always up for showing curious people around, or just answering a question.
