Seal Point Park in San Mateo, CA
By Rachel Puryear
If you love the San Francisco Bay Trail, Seal Point Park in San Mateo is a lovely part of that, which offers sweeping views around the Bay Area.
You can walk a paved trail around the Bay. You can climb a hill that offers a panoramic view up at the top. You can also take the kids to a great children’s park section, or take your dogs to the dog park section.
Though any time of day is beautiful here, sunrises and sunsets in this park are especially stunning, with the golden and pink glow over the water.
