It is the Golden Gate Strait or just Golden Gate. The strait is 5 miles/8 km long and narrows to about.5 miles/1 km in width. The American explorer John Charles Frémont names the strait in 1846. "To this Gate I gave the name of Chrysopylae, or Golden Gate; for the same reasons that the harbor of Byzantium was called Chrysoceras, or golden horn.” The Golden Horn is an estuary that divides Istanbul.

The Golden Gate Bridge is the gate into the Bay area. In other words, The Pacific Ocean and the SF Bay flows under the bridge.
