Some like it hot. We made a carousel for everyone else. 🥵 This heat wave has been a lot, and while cooler days may be ahead, the Bay Area has a habit of heating right back up in Fall. So save this one for the next toasty day — or, you know, right now. Ocean air, redwood shade, a drive with the windows down, or something appropriately chilled. Pick your preferred method: COASTSIDE 🌊 📍 Pacifica + Montara beach days @visitpacifica_ca 📍 Half Moon Bay + Pillar Point Harbor 📍 Jettywave Distillery patio drinks (@jettywavehmb) 📍 Rockaway Brewing hops (@rockawaybeachbrewery) CENTRAL 🌲 📍 Huddart Park walks 📍 Wunderlich Park strolls 📍 Skyline Boulevard drives 📍 Alice’s Restaurant shady tables (@aliceswoodside) BAYSIDE 🌊 📍 Twelvemonth (@twelvemonthburlingame)— for a cooler cocktail 📍 Bay Trail — stick close to the Bay when you can’t make it to the coast 📍 Fieldwork Brewing Co. San Mateo — patio + cold beer. You get the idea. One Peninsula. Lots of different spots to cool off. Pick your microclimate. 😶‍🌫️ #TheSFPeninsula #BayArea
