The owner is my friend and a great spirit :). This is a magic place to browse among plants and meditate! The views from the hill are killer.
Great orchid greenhouse with gift shop, art and parking lot to Golden Gate Recreational hike
A major hiking trail starts here. The trail goes straight up the hill and will allow you to overlook all of Pacifica and the ocean. You can go for many miles if desired.
If you're a gardener, or just a fan of fresh flowers, this place is pretty cool. One of the city of Pacifica’s most unique attractions is Shelldance Orchid Gardens, a world-renowned bromeliad nursery. The gardens were originally established in 1949 by Herb Hager, who used his skill and vision to turn an artichoke field into what was then state-of-the-art greenhouses. Other than a change in name, the greenhouses have essentially remained the same until today. You will be able to see world-renowned hybrid orchids, many of which are named after local area landmarks such as Pacifica, Pedro Point, and Pacific Ocean. Go explore the ethereal place and walk through the arrangement of plants - you’ll also come across an array of local artwork throughout the gardens.
