Sausalito, California

Sausalito (spanish for "little willow grove") is located just north of the Golden Gate Bridge, on the south-eastern tip of Marin County. It is a small town, covering a mere two and one half miles and consisting of 7,500 residents.

Sausalito is known for one thing: spectacular waterfront views of the San Francisco Bay and the City.

Before completion of the Golden Gate Bridge, Sausalito was the site of an auto ferry running to the Hyde Street Pier in San Francisco and the continuation point of old U.S. Highway 101.

Sausalito was the setting mentioned by Otis Redding and Steve Cropper in their 1967 tune (Sittin' On) the Dock of the Bay.

You can reach Sausalito by taking an exit off from Highway 101 just north of the Golden Gate Bridge.
