Fort Funston is another great place in SF to get in touch with the outdoors. This is a rugged stretch of Pacific coastal headlands, sand, and dunes south of Ocean Beach. At the bottom of the cliffs there's a windy beach for good for walking and running dogs, but nor not swimming or sunbathing.
This place is especially popular for dog owners. You will always find a lot of them here, and they are OK off-leash. If you are afraid of dogs this probably isn't the best park for you, but realize that the dog owners here are generally regulars and the dogs well behaved. I've never encountered a problem.
Fort Funston is one of the best hang-gliding spots in California. If you are into this sport, you already know this. Other visitors can enjoy watching the fun. There is even a wheelchair-accessible viewing deck.
