How far are the Farallon Islands from San Francisco?

Last updated February 21, 2021 by ZagBot Comment

The Farallon Islands lie some 28 miles off the west coast of San Francisco in the Pacific Ocean’s Gulf of the Farallones.

On clear days, the group of rocky islands and sea stacks are visible from the mainland as jagged peaks on the horizon, and despite their distance offshore, they are formally part of the City and County of San Francisco.

The islands are closed to the public and as an important habitat for seabirds and marine mammals, are part of a National Wildlife Refuge under the management of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.
