Tiburon Real Estate
Tiburon is one of the most affluent communities in the Bay Area, and an ideal place to live if you're looking for a high-end home with a view of San Francisco. The hills along the southern tip of the Tiburon peninsula are covered with terraced view properties overlooking the big city and the Golden Gate Bridge.
Distance to San Francisco / Golden Gate Bridge: 10 - 15 miles. Commuters can also take a ferry from downtown Tiburon to San Francisco.
Downtown Tiburon is situated at the ocean's edge, and is packed with charming international restaurants, fancy shops, and outdoor bars. There is also a small shopping center, called The Cove, in the Bel Aire neighborhood. Local residents enjoy quick access to San Francisco, and undeveloped Angel Island State Park, via ferries from downtown Tiburon.
Tiburon's name comes from an unlikely source. It's the Spanish word for "shark," used by Lt. Juan Manuel de Ayala when he anchored the San Carlos here in August 1775. Whether de Ayala saw a number of sharks here, or thought the tree-covered Tiburon Peninsula resembled a shark is unknown.
