A nice day out, great parks and beaches, nice to spend the day biking or walking, a couple nice spots to have lunch/dinner. Worth checking out. there are charcoal BBQs on Hanlans Point to use, bring your own food and charcoal (and maybe you can pack a couple adult beverages, use plastic cups). Only accessibly by ferry, the ride home will get you the best view of the city, especially at night!
