San Francisco is full of fun for Tiny Travelers.

We know the kids are out of school during summer, but if you visit San Francisco from September to November you're likely to have much sunnier and warmer weather. June through August are typically 50°F-60°F, overcast and windy. January and February are also chilly, and most often rainy. For money-savings tips and general information in 13 languages, visit San Francisco Convention & Visitors Bureau or call them at 415/391-2000.
