On the SF to Half Moon Bay hike walking on sand?

Posted by Jennifer Breckler on September 11, 2011 at 5:31pm

I plan to walk from SF Fort Funston to Half Moon Bay, as in the book. I have a few questions.

Was there a lot of walking on sand? If so, what shoes should be worn and were the tides a problem or dangerous?

Also, is there a good place meet up with people at Fort Funston (i.e. a parking lot or building that can be easily found with a car)?

    There is about 4.5 miles of hiking on a beautiful beach from Fort Funston to Mussel Rock on the north end of Pacifica.  This walkabout ends with a 3.7 mile stroll into Half Moon Bay along the beach or paved path.  We wore light hiking boots, and they were good for all the terrain, including the trails on the flank of Montara Mountain.

    The Fort Funston parking lot would be a good place to meet up, or you could walk into the park and connect for a meet up by cell phone.
