PointBonita PointBonitaA fog-swept rock promontory on the ocean side of the Golden Gate, overrun by feral cabbage escaped from the lighthouse-keeper's garden. Still operating as a lighthouse and historic site. The lighthouse is separated from the former site of the dwelling by a cable footbridge monitored by rangers -- only a couple of people are supposed to cross at once.

Wildflowers in season include beautiful globe thistles.
In the MarinHeadlands.
