Take a ferry ride from Fisherman's Wharf to the Alcatraz and do the audio tour...it's a little creepy, but fascinating. Book at least 2 weeks in advance - http://www.alcatraztickets.com/

A different view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Also great spot to witness the power of the Pacific - sometimes the waves here are big and loud. If you're feeling energetic, try the sand ladder

The 'Crookedest Street in the World'. On a clear day there are great views of Coit Tower & the SF Bay from the top (at Hyde St). Also walking to the top is great exercise.

Rent a bike and ride across the bridge to Sausaltio. Or walk across. The views are amazing. Be warned - it can be cold and windy.

Sit on the bleachers and watch the bay swimmers - people swim in the Bay year-round. Also a good place to people-watch in general.
