The History of Cavallo Point
Named after the wild stallions that gathered centuries ago in this sheltered haven by the bay, Cavallo Point has long been a place of serenity and contentment.
The Golden Gate National Recreation Area

The parks' 75,000+ acres extend north from Fort Baker at the Golden Gate Bridge to Tomales Bay in Marin County and south to San Mateo County.
