Image Caption: San Francisco Bay, California. San Francisco, Oakland and other Bay communities. The Golden Gate and Bay are clearly visible, as is the flow of Bay waters into the Pacific through the Golden Gate with the outgoing tide. The trace of the San Andreas fault projects north, through the southern peninsula, heads offshore at the Golden Gate, and continues along the western coast through Bodega Bay. Another major fault of the San Andreas system is the Calaveras fault, which traverses the east side of the Bay. Recent strong motion on the Calaveras fault includes the 1984 earthquake (6.2 Mercalli) with a hypocenter in Morgan Hill, just south of this view.
