Comment HIKE to get our full list of NorCal favs 🐾🄾

How to spend a dog-friendly day in Pacifica, CA ⤵

Stop 1: Esplanade Beach
This beach reminds me of a mini Fort Funston and it’s best to go here early to beat the crowds (especially on a sunny day). It’s also the only off-leash beach in the area.

Stop 2: Soul Grind Coffee
Popular breakfast/lunch spot with a lot of outdoor seating. Don’t get discouraged if you see a line out the door - it’s worth it. We love their bagel breakfast sandwiches. Pro tip: Order ahead online

Stop 3: Hike Mori Point or Devil’s Slide (or both!)
Mori Point is best experienced in the spring and for a shorter route you can start the hike at Fairway Dr. For Devil’s Slide, park in the south lot for more options and check out the bunker first.

Stop 4: Grab lunch at Taco Bell Cantina or Humble Sea Brewing
Taco Bell has an iconic location on the beach, but the food is so so good at Humble Sea. We loved the fish & tots and their sour beer.

This is one of our favorite low-key spots in the East Bay when everything is green 🐾 šŸƒ and no hike is complete without a little protein-rich snack break.
