The Pacifica Pier At Sunset

Our week in Pacifica, California this past summer was truly a delight, and I still can’t believe I was never there! We simply passed it by so so many times on our way to somewhere further away!

I have shared with you the Mori Point Hike, The Sharp Park Beach, and the the Sharp Park Beach birds, and now drum roll, the Pacifica pier! While there are two sides of Pacifica, the decidedly less fancy and more layed back side is the side where the pier is located, and we were just a 5 or so minute walk from it. The pier was mostly packed with folks fishing for sea life of some kind, and the views of Pacifica from the pier, especially at sunset, were really stunning! Come lets take a little walk down the pier, shall we?

The two major points in Pacifica, Mori Point in the foreground and  Pedro Point in the background, stunning! Between the two points is the other side of town, a surfing beach, a nice looking hotel, shopping, and a famous Taco Bell on the beach!

Looking back down the pier from the end, see that one lone tree?

Looking north up the coast towards San Francisco. Those rocks were brought in to help stop erosion.
Another look at the houses on waterfront.
Another look South, wow.

Ah yes, and a view of the pier from the south.

And a view of the pier from the north. On a typical foggy summer day, and that friends is Pacifica! When you visit it is a good idea to plan at least a few days in the area just in case the fog rolls in, but that is also special!
