Top ways to experience Marina Green and nearby attractions
The area
Neighbourhood: Marina District
Beautiful homes, beautiful people, and a beautiful backdrop of the Golden Gate Bridge welcome visitors to the Marina. Originally the location for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition in 1915 (whose remnants can be seen at the Palace of Fine Arts), much of the land was filled and flattened to accommodate a world’s fair. That ample space has given way to a jogger’s paradise at the northern edge of the city. With the picturesque bay setting as its backdrop, it’s no surprise that the area has hosted numerous movie productions. Daytime activities focus on café culture and boutique shopping, while the evenings turn this neighbourhood into a party-going hotspot.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We went to Marina Green on July 5th. Its a wonderful place to be by the bay and see sites like Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. There is a nice exercise area Its also an area where people bring their dogs.

We walked through the Marina Green area from Chrissy fields and it's worth it. Boats on one side, cute homes on the other. The sidewalk is big enough for walkers and cyclists.

Believe or not, lived in Bay Area over 20 years, today was my first visit ever to this nice spot. You can have different view of Golden Gate Bridge, but also fully explore the ocean scenes surroundings. Additionally, there were a lot of yachts and a lot of locals/ tourists walking along the shore to enjoy the natural beauty. If you ever visit Palace of fine arts, don’t forget to come over here (only a block or so away) to explore all the beautiful scenes.

It's a simple green area, but with the most unbelievable views!! And if you're taking place in the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon, this is your transition & finish area, so it's extra special!! Great for walking, running, cycling, dog walking, frisbee...fantastic!

During our stay in SF, we literally could not see the bridge. We rode over it, and still couldn't see it. So, thankfully, after picking up our Rental car, we drove down lombard, and decided to get as close as possible to the bridge along the shoreline. Turns out, Marina Green was the best spot for the pictures we weren't able to take! It's a nice little spot next to the marina, and looked really cool with all the sailboats & yachts parked.

This morning we took a walk from the Marina to the Golden Gate Bridge. Lots of people riding bikes, walking, sailing and jogging. SF is also a very dog friendly community. While the weather was brisk and a little foggy, it sure beats the 90's at home.

Lots of people jogging, biking, and playing with their dogs. Pretty typical beach front park, except that it is overlooked by multimillion dollar homes. We went in the evening to take pictures of the bridge, backlit at sunset. The pictures were great, but at that time of day it was freezing and super windy. Great for flying kites. Just bundle up!

We enjoyed a nice walk by the Bay by parking for free at Maritime Green. There is a nice Green Grass area and thus the name. We then wakked and saw view of Fort Mason Center, Alcatraz, the small boat harbor marina, and the Golden Gate Bridge.
its a good place to also watch boats on the Bay.

The Marina Green is nice and clean. The views are beautiful. The parking is free. We spent about one half hour at the park. Safeway is nearby.

Noticed 2 large parking lots by the yacht club area, is this free parking?
