Introducing Tiburon
At the end of a small peninsula pointing out into the center of the bay, Tiburon is blessed with gorgeous views, much like Sausalito. It’s a small community, but has a handful of fine restaurants that constitute destinations in themselves. The name comes from the Spanish Punta de Tiburon (Shark Point). Take the ferry from San Francisco, browse the shops on Main St, grab a bite to eat and you’ve seen Tiburon. The town is also the jumping-off point for nearby Angel Island.
