Sausalito
Step into a world of sheer
mesmerizing wonder and beauty; a world where you can get
a taste of the Mediterranean as you enjoy the languid
waters ribboning through your fingers while sitting next
to the willows! Welcome to the picturesque city of
Sausalito situated in Marin County in California. The
city is situated right next to the Golden Gate National
Recreation Area and is flanked by rather interesting
topography. Straddling the topography of hills and
water, Sausalito can be rightfully called as ‘everyone’s
paradise’! At a stone throw away distance from the
mighty Golden Gate Bridge, the city creates a fetching
picture! The scenery also includes the Pine Point and
Richardson Bay.
Sausalito is a city
crafted by the very best... the glorious colors,
enchanting scenery…the willows standing proudly across a
river bank; all fuse together to paint a picture that is
simply striking in its allure! Hop onto a ferry from San
Francisco and find yourself being transported to a world
where enjoyment is the norm. There are few places where
nature paints scenery that is so awe striking and
mesmerizing that you are left gaping at it. Few other
pleasures match up to the pleasure that Sausalito is-
the gorgeous sunsets, the entwining of the blue water
with the cotton clouds above the hills, the long winding
roads that are resplendent with flowers of every
possible color. Sausalito is everyone’s paradise.
The proud city was
initially a shipyard, that came up in the World War II
era, since then it has gone ahead to sport the character
of an arty haven that comes with the ‘wealth’ tag. The
city boasts of the unique pleasure of houseboats which
are enjoyed at all times! In fact with the weather here
being mostly Mediterranean, these houseboats are a major
tourist draw and have them flocking here just to bask in
the glory of warm sun and cool breeze.
