Started as a race through San Francisco in 1912 it has become to more than a sports event. It has grown to a huge party that no one should miss, when being in the bay area on the third sunday of may.
Catherhine Hill Bay on the Nsw Australian east coast, once was a thriving coal mine town with an impressive coal loading facility. The coal mines have since closed and the coal loading wharf now sits abandoned.
Originally built in 1898, this San Francisco landmark at the foot of Market Street was one of the busiest transit terminals in the world prior to the construction of the Bay and Golden Gate Bridges during the 1930s. Ferry traffic declined dramatically thereafter, and from the 1950s until the mid-1990s, the Ferry Building was hidden behind an ugly elevated freeway.
Point Reyes National Seashore, located just north of San Francisco, is a 70,000 acre park preserve. Activities include hiking, swimming in Tomales Bay, and even whale-watching from the Point Reyes Lighthouse.
Drake Bay is possibly the most beautiful place in Costa Rica!
The Atlantic Highlands is just west of Highlands and Sandy Hook on the Jersey Shore. A boutique hotel is situated on the shore (see "Blue Bay Inn") that is just a 5 minute walk from the commuter ferry from Manhattan.
The Blue Bay Inn is easy to get to from Manhattan by taking the Sea Streak Ferry from East 35th Street or Pier 11 Wall Street – takes about 40 minutes (it also stops in Highlands). Overlooking Sandy Hook Bay, it is a rare boutique hotel offering a great location for a business meeting out of the City or a quick getaway at the shore
Cabinas El Mirador Lodge is an excellent place to stay in Drake Bay, on Costa Rica's beautiful Osa Peninsula. The view is exceptional...
The Shipwreck Grill offers patrons fine dining off of Barnegat Bay. Just off of Route 35 in Brielle, New Jersey, the menu offers an incredible array of seafood specialities (but don't worry, there are specials for the land lubbers among us...).
For those of you headed to the Jersey Shore via New Jersey Transits' North Jersey Coastline, sit on the east side of the train for a treat (if you are fortunate enough to be on one of the new NJT double-decker cars, sit of the top level for a better view). As you approach and pass through South Amboy, New Jersey look in the middle of the Raritan Bay.
