Travelling for business you may also have the opportunity to visit some of the bay’s top attractions.

Here’s a few you could consider visiting:

Golden Gate Bridge

The iconic orange bridge is beautiful year-round, and November is a great time to visit when the weather is cool but pleasant. You can walk or bike across for stunning views.

Alcatraz Island

Take a ferry to tour the infamous former prison. Wear layers as it can be chilly on the island. Book tickets early as tours sell out.

Fisherman's Wharf

Wander the lively waterfront area filled with seafood restaurants, shops, street performers, and harbour views. Eat fresh crab and chowder.

Exploratorium

This hands-on science museum has fascinating exhibits to spark creativity and imagination. It's an indoor activity perfect for November.

Cable Cars

Ride the famous cable cars for a fun way to explore the hilly streets. Try the Powell-Hyde or Powell-Mason lines for scenic routes. Hold on tight and dress warmly!

Other good options are museums like the SFMOMA and De Young Museum, the historic Ferry Building marketplace, or taking in a show or concert during your visit.
