Drive
south from San Francisco on scenic Highway One to the once sleepy beach town of
Half Moon Bay, where you'll find Francis Beach, part of the Half Moon Bay State
Beaches. With summertime water temperatures ranging from 13 to 18 degrees, a wet
suit for swimming and surfing is a must. Although it's often foggy, on clear days
you can see out to Pillar Point Harbor, a wonderful fishing site.
Rent
a sea kayak(小艇)
from Half Moon Bay Kayak Co, the first kayak company in the country to equip their
boats with a GPS tracking device(装置).
You can rent such a sea kayak and you will be at perfect surf wave, Mavericks($15
per hour; www.hmbkayak,com).
Hikers
and runners will enjoy the gentle wind along the waterfront seaside path, connecting
several beaches, or at the paths of Pursima Cree Redwoods Open Space Preserve in
the hills above town.
Where
to eat: Stay by the Half Moon Bay Brewery for high quality dishes, made with locally
grown ingredients, or go back with the locals and a Maverick's Amber Ale on the
waterfront deck(www.hmbbrewingco.com).
Where
to stay: For five-star expensive hotels, check into the Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon
Bay (from $305, www.ritzcarlton.com/resorts/half moon bay/). Enjoy the open-air
dishes in the comfort of the new Ocean Terrace Restaurant overlooking the sea and
be sure to enroll(使加入)the
kids in the year-round Rita Kids program. For even more open-air living, book one
of the 52 seaside campsites at Francis Beach's state campground. In April, the campsite
