Sausalito, Coastal city in Marin County, United States
Located across the Golden Gate Strait from San Francisco, Sausalito sits at an elevation of 3 meters along the Richardson Bay waterfront.
Originally settled by Coast Miwok people at Liwanelowa, Sausalito transformed into a major shipbuilding center during World War II after its incorporation in 1893.
The waterfront district contains numerous art galleries, studios, and exhibition spaces where local artists display paintings, sculptures, and contemporary works.
