About Our Name ‘Cavallo Point’
The name “Cavallo” is part of the San Francisco Bay’s history. It dates from 1775 when a rocky point near Fort Baker was named “Punta de Caballo” by the commander of one of the first European vessels that sailed into the bay. Wild horses once roamed here, and “caballo” is the Spanish word for “horse.” Early California settlers started using “Cavallo,” as the pronunciation of b and v in Spanish are very close, and the name took hold.
