About Fort Point, San Francisco:
Fort Point sits at the southernmost anchorage of the Golden Gate Bridge, where the San Francisco Bay meets the open Pacific. Originally built during the Civil War era, the historic fortification now serves as a National Historic Site — but it's the surf break just offshore that has earned global fame. Frigid, powerful swells funnel through the Golden Gate strait, creating fast, hollow waves that only the most committed surfers dare to ride, all set against one of the most photographed backdrops on the planet. Discover more about this stunning destination by exploring Fort Point on Wikipedia and the National Park Service site.
