San Francisco gems (hidden or not) from a local adventurist
Sightseeing
Science is cool but what about watching gigantic fish flying over your head with a cocktail in hand and DJ in the background? How about in a tropical forest with butterflies landing on your shoulder? Every Thursday night California Academy of Sciences opens up for adults for a night party. Great for dates and hangouts.

Used to be a vantage point of SF before the skyscrapers. Constructed to observe fire and send fire-fighters in the 1800s -1900s (no 911 call back then). Great view day and night.

Mission District Murals. There are A LOT of back streets in the Mission district where the whole building is covered in graffiti and murals. They are constantly being painted over by the local artists. You can just park your car there and walk around. A good place to take Instagram photos.
