Details

South Beach, the area south of Market Street nearest the bay, is known for its sunny days, sweeping bay views, and convenient access to the Financial District and SoMa neighborhoods.

The Neighborhood

Once filled with warehouses, South Beach has been transformed over the last decade into a primarily residential neighborhood with modern apartments and luxury condos. The area has stellar water views, is convenient to the Financial District and SoMa neighborhoods, and is home to Oracle Park.

What To Expect

Recently, South Beach has become home to several of the city’s tallest luxury condo buildings, re-establishing it again as one of San Francisco’s most prestigious areas to live. It includes the popular sub-neighborhood of Rincon Hill, which was one of San Francisco’s most desirable neighborhoods during the Gold Rush.

Lifestyle

Although there are no beaches in South Beach, on the many sunny days, you’ll find residents and visitors alike picnicking along the paved walks and benches that line the bay. Walkers, joggers, and cyclists enjoy the paved trail that skirts the edge, taking in some of the best views to be had in the entire city. Residents who are especially energetic can follow the waterfront all the way to the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge.
