Kirby Cove Camp, Coastal campground in Marin Headlands, US
The campground spreads across a sheltered area near the Golden Gate Bridge, featuring five tent sites and one day-use area for gatherings.
Battery Kirby, positioned next to the campground, served as a military defense installation protecting San Francisco Bay from 1898 to 1934.
The camping area provides opportunities for outdoor education programs focused on local marine ecosystems and military fortification systems.
Visitors need to carry their own drinking water, as the site offers only basic amenities including pit toilets, barbecue pits, and picnic tables.
The beach at Kirby Cove presents direct views of ships entering San Francisco Bay while passing under the north tower of Golden Gate Bridge.
