The town of Tiburon is nestled at the end of the Tiburon Peninsula, which lies 6 miles across San Francisco Bay from San Francisco, California. A 20 minute commute to San Francisco by water or freeway, both towns offer world class views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, Alcatraz and other major landmarks.
Tiburon is a beautiful enclave of historical landmarks, parks, world-class restaurants and shopping areas. The residential architecture is a mix of small cottages, many of them beautifully remodeled, contemporary showplaces located in the hills with spectacular views, and sensational examples of engineering that jut out over the water. The San Francisco and Corinthian Yacht Clubs provide berths for hundreds of sailboats for local yachtsmen; public and private tennis and swimming facilities are also available to residents. Visitors from around the world come here to enjoy the natural beauty and many varied activities that this delightful harbor community provides.
