The town of Tiburon is just a short ferry ride from downtown San Francisco. Angel Island, a historic landmark, is located in the east of downtown, and Belvedere rises above to the west, just a bit closer than the Golden Gate Bridge.
Tiburon is located just north of San Francisco between Sausalito and San Rafael along Highway 131 near the San Francisco and San Pedro bays.
Tiburon is part of the San Francisco, California metro area.
