Dress To Impress: Don't be Fooled By Summer
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Luggage And Bags: It is expected that you dress up if you are planing to go out to dinner... So on that note, bring a garment bag to put dresses/ suits in, or a hard shell suitcase.

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Don't let the title of 'SUMMER' fool you. Mark Twain once said "The coldest winter I ever spent was summer in San Francisco," and anyone who's been there will agree. The temperature will be the warmest in September and October leaving most travellers wondering if they should pack a bikini or a parka. You will definitely want to bring parts and a sweatshirt, no matter what time of the year you visit this gorgeous city.



    Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: The water is very cold and unless you surf, sail , or are wearing a wetsuit I wouldn't go into the water. While outside I usually wear a light jacket or sweater... If you have one, a windbreaker would be a good idea to bring.

    Miscellaneous: The temperature generally rises once the fog starts to lift, but that could be as late as 15 or 16:00 sometimes, so it's good to dress warmly, but also in layers that you can shed if it starts to get too warm.
