When I first moved here, I joined a bikecamping group that left from SF for Samuel P Taylor park. That was when I realized how much nature I could easily access without getting into a car. Even today, cycling across the Golden Gate Bridge to go to San Anselmo for bread or China Camp for camping is still a beloved activity. The multimodal nature of transit is a blessing (I would then just head back to Larkspur and take a ferry back. Or put my bike in a bus from San Rafael)
Today, I am in a car as I’m going much much further. But the small weekend trips for birding or whale watching or mushroom foraying keep me happy here.
If you hike or bike, you can get a camp site quite easily even without a reservation

@skinnylatte recently moved from Novato in North Marin to El Cerrito in East Bay and I really miss those places being on our doorstep!
Just discovering the outdoor places around here - Wildcat Canyon, Tilden - and while they are lovely, they have yet to win my heart

@skinnylatte my husband and I visited SF once, years before we got married. Biked across the golden gate on a rented tandem bicycle.
We came to the conclusion that such an experience is a really good part of a pre-wedding test of the relationship’s resilience.
We also took the ferry back to the city.

️@james yeah north vs east bay feels like do you want this type of nature and drive to good food, or do you want daily good food and drive to that type of nature. I get what you mean about east bay wilderness. It’s gorgeous but it’s different
