170 Santa Maria Ave Pacifica, 94044
Located in San Mateo County just twelve miles south of San Francisco, Pacifica feels worlds away from it, yet is easily accessible from Highway 1. The most panoramic coastal town in the San Francisco Bay Area, Pacifica is famous for its six miles of scenic coastline, classic northern California beaches, breathtaking vistas, and charming ambience. The city is nestled in between small valleys, with Sweeney Ridge to the east, Montara Mountain to the south and the Pacific Ocean’s rocky bluffs and sandy beaches to the west. Pacifica encompasses roughly 12.6 square miles, of which, approximately one-half is publicly owned open space. Numerous cities, county and state parks provide panoramic views and a feeling of spaciousness rarely found in suburban areas. Several miles of coastal and ridge top trails tie Pacifica to neighboring communities.
This natural connecting point of beaches, headlands and hills provides a wide range of recreational opportunities from surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, scuba diving and paragliding, to hiking, whale and bird watching, and cycling. Pacifica’s one-quarter mile fishing pier is considered to be one of the best in the state and is ranked number one by anglers in the Bay area. Other recreational amenities include golf, bowling, archery, and team sports. Pacifica’s natural beauty is enhanced by its Mediterranean-style weather.
With a population of approximately 40,000, Pacifica is a unique family-oriented coastal community that prides itself on fostering a “small town” feel. Many of Pacifica’s residents are highly engaged and involved in the community. Pacifica has excellent elementary and secondary schools, both public and private, and was recently named one of the Top 100 Safest Cities in America by Location, Inc. The City was also awarded the League of California Cities Helen Putnam Award for Excellence for the restoration of Linda Mar Beach and the reclamation of the wetlands in that area.
The community enjoys a diverse economic base and has a significant number of smaller businesses. Tourism is especially important to Pacifica’s economy with thousands of people annually attracted to its beaches, vistas, and open space. Unique shops and a variety of lodging are available with restaurants offering relaxing sunset and coastal viewing. For live local theater and performing arts, Pacifica Spindrift Players is a local and popular favorite, along with Pacifica Performances, which regularly provide both musical presentations and performing arts as well. The world-class bromeliad nursery, Shelldance Orchid Gardens, is located just off Highway 1. Pacifica plays host to the Pacific Coast Fog Festival each September, which showcases everything from artists and performers to children’s activities and a hometown parade.
Pacifica is a place where one can step into the natural world and enjoy a variety of recreational offerings, sample a cultural arts performance or gallery opening, and later relax at a local restaurant and bask in a spectacular sunset. Pacifica’s rich cultural heritage and unique personality make it a community worth uncovering.
