Halachic note

San Francisco follows the local custom of lighting candles 18 minutes before sunset. The Shabbat-end time shown uses tzeit hakochavim (8.5°). A 72-minute alternative is also shown for those who follow that opinion.

San Francisco's Jewish community blends a rich history with a vibrant Orthodox hub in the Richmond District. For Shabbat observers, the city offers an eruv, kosher dining, and welcoming synagogues for a fulfilling visit by the Golden Gate.
