Hi,
Go to the Marin Headlands for photos of the bridge and views of San Francisco and the bay, Alcatraz, Treasure Island, etc. Drive across the bridge from SF and follow everyone else off the bridge. You'll also find the WWII and 1970s Nike missile placements to defend the entrance to the bay.

Top of the Mark in the Mark Hopkins hotel is considered one of the most romantic spots in the city - by some - just do a web search for info.

well I'm not from here so I may not know much, but I LOVE the food at Fisherman's Wharf. Nothing too touristy in south bay. If u like shopping, I like Great Mall in Milpitas. Supposed to be the largest indoor outlet mall in Norcal.
