Good place for a casual hike, with beautiful views of San Francisco and the bay. The ferry from Tiburon costs $18 per person and takes 20 minutes to arrive at the island. The ferry back to Tiburon leaves 20 minutes after the hour, every hour, until 5:20pm (on weekends.)

The whole loop around the island is around six miles and mostly paved. A lot of it is uncovered, so plan accordingly during the hot season. Bikes are allowed on the trail. As a result, you'll see a lot of inexperienced bikers around you when hiking. If you prefer to bike yourself, e-bikes are available for rentals for $16 per hour or $64 for the whole day (as of Sep/2023).

Facilities include public restrooms (near the pier only) and a place to buy sandwiches and beverages. There are many places to picnic and campground spaces for overnight camping. For those who prefer not to walk, motorized tours of the island are available.

Overall, this a great place to spend a few hours and burn some calories. If coming back to Tiburon, you can recover some of those calories by enjoying one of the many restaurants and coffee shops in the area.
