Endless Summer in San Francisco
Stay at the Center of San Francisco’s Best Season
While much of the country says goodbye to summer after Labor Day, San Francisco is just getting started. As the famous summer fog gives way to sunny afternoons, warm waterfront evenings and spectacular sunsets, August through October becomes one of the best times to experience the city.
The crowds have eased, the weather is at its peak, and the city’s event calendar is packed with world-class festivals, waterfront celebrations, Giants baseball and unforgettable experiences—all just steps from the Argonaut Hotel at Fisherman’s Wharf.
