1. Doing Dry January or just don't drink alcohol in general? Enjoy a non-alcoholic craft cocktail, book a "temperance tasting", or sign up for a mixology class at Ocean Beach Cafe in the Outer Richmond. Or check out Boisson in Hayes Valley, a sleek non-alcoholic bottle shop, with a selection of over 300 drinks.
2. Try a yoga class in a special location. Practice Yoga on the Labyrinth surrounded by the awe-inspiring architecture of Grace Cathedral and accompanied by live music from world-renowned musicians. Classes held weekly on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Or reserve an upcoming date now for Yoga in the Garden outside in the Botanical Garden or After-Hours Yoga in the Conservatory in a lush tropical setting.
3. Want to do a short day trip outside of the city? Take a guided elephant seal walk at Año Nuevo State Park. During breeding season from now through March 31st, visitors must be accompanied on a docent-led tour, offered multiple times daily. Click here for more info and to reserve tickets.
4. While SF does usually enjoy some warm days in January, we also get our share of cold, wet, and dreary days. On those days, there's nothing better than a hot bowl of noodle soup. Find some of the best ramen in San Francisco, according to this list in The Infatuation. What's your favorite noodle spot in SF?
5. Have a laugh at SF Sketchfest. This annual comedy festival runs from January 18 to February 4 at venues across San Francisco and includes improv, stand-up, film, podcasts, storytelling, variety and game shows, and more. Check out the lineup and get tickets here.
