I remember something like that back in the day, beaches, beer, boardwalk, roller coasters, twisty fun roads.

I just went up Woodside Road to King's Mountain Road, then to Skyline to go hiking at the Purrissima Creek trails. Then I came back down Skyline and stopped at Windy Hill for a fast hike to the top (another half mile), then finally to Page Mill Road to Moody Road. There are PLENTY of twisty fun roads still here!
The sunset from Windy Hill was spectacular (below, looking west). That's the sun reflecting off the ocean out there. A cold front moved in and a real stiff wind was blowing off the ocean. It was 44 degrees up there with some serious wind chill.

Short line inter urban rail was a widespread convenience all around the country until after WWII, when it was essentially destroyed by a concerted campaign by the lobbyists for rubber tires and cars and concrete road construction.
