A bit a good detective work by Ben uncovered a handy Muni bus that crosses the Golden Gate Bridge, climbs the Marin Headlands to Marin Beach.....and back again (but only on a Sunday). Marin Beach wasn't the nicest beach we'd been to so we stayed on the bus as it looped back around and climbed the hills that make up the Marin Headlands. We jumped off the bus at a scenic point for some awesome views of the bridge with Alcatraz and San Francisco in the background.
From there it was an easy downhill walk to Battery Spencer before walking under the bridge to Vista Point for views back the other way.
Continuing on we walked the 2737 metres (8981 feet) of the bridge named not for it's colour but because it crosses the Golden Gate, the strait that is the mouth of San Francisco Bay. The bridge's colour is actually International Orange.
