Its huge, metal and stretches across the Golden Gate, but it's not the bridge. It's the former site of the Tiburon Sub-Net Depot, where they built and deployed nets across the San Francisco Bay to keep out enemy submarines.

Long before the Tiburon Sub-Net Depot was there, this small piece of land had many incarnations, among them are: home to Native Americans, an original Spanish Ranchero, the largest Cod fish drying plant on the west coast, a coaling station for the Navy, and it was where the cables for the bridge were spun... in fact if you look over the edge at low tide you can still see them.

Come on along with us as we get a up close look at this little, but important piece of California's Gold.
