Overview
For 218 years, the Presidio served as an army post for three nations. World and local events, from military campaigns to World Fairs and earthquakes, left their mark. Come enjoy the history and the natural beauty of the Presidio. Explore centuries of architecture. Reflect in a national cemetery. Walk along an historic airfield, through forests or to beaches, and admire spectacular vistas.
The weather at the Presidio is typically cool and quite variable from location to location. The summer is often foggy and cool, so a light coat or sweater is appropriate year-round.
