Kirby Cove Campground

Perched on the edge of the Pacific, Kirby Cove Campground offers an unparalleled blend of coastal seclusion and urban proximity, with iconic Golden Gate Bridge views that redefine the camping experience.

This intimate campground features just five walk-in sites, each providing a rare opportunity to sleep within earshot of San Francisco Bay's foghorns while surrounded by a grove of cypress, eucalyptus, and pine. The sites are thoughtfully positioned to maximize privacy and showcase the breathtaking panorama of the city skyline, bridge, and rugged coastline. A short but steep trail leads to a secluded beach, perfect for morning strolls or sunset picnics.

Located in the Marin Headlands, Kirby Cove is a stone's throw from San Francisco yet feels worlds apart. The campground serves as an ideal base for exploring the area's rich military history, with Battery Kirby offering a glimpse into coastal defense systems of the past. Adventurous campers can take advantage of the extensive trail network in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, providing ample opportunities for hiking and wildlife observation.
