I would say it's an AQUATIC BIOME. Specifically, the area is called "wetlands".
"Other areas of still waters, or wetlands, such as glades, swamps, and marshes support a large variety of aquatic flora and fauna. Aside from plants such as sedges and pond lilies, the wetlands also support a few types of trees, such as cypress, which are highly adapted to the high humidity of these regions. The wetlands are rich in life forms, from reptiles, to mammals, to amphibians and birds, to hundreds of insects. Some wetlands, such as the ones found in the San-Francisco Bay area, are host to shellfish, shrimp, and other marine creatures due to their high salt content."

I can tell you because I live here in San Francisco. It's great city a wide diversity of all people. We have great restaurants to eat at. The best places to visit is Pier 39, Coit Tower, our new mall called Westfield, Sony Meteron, tour the Golden gate Bridge, visit the Presido and much more.
Climate in San Francisco is normally cool with plenty of foggy summers, but they are times w will have our heatwaves. Winters are cold and usually pretty wet. Between November into February we have very power mid-latitude that can bring destructive winds. December 1995 we briefly had, but fastest sustained wind speed in the city of San Francisco. Winds top 105 mph a category 2 hurricane strength. Damage was pretty bad and then last year we had another power storm with winds over 75 mph.
However, the most danger we are prone to is earthquakes. We are expecting another large qauke soon.
Here is a site of the 1906 quake in San Francisco.

Very unusual. The ocean and the bay are quite cold and there are rocky islands along the ocean where seals hang out. The surrounding area is very hilly. The climate is very moderate with most rain in the late fall through early springtime. Large redwoods can be found north of San Fransisco. It's a great place to visit, just save your nickels and dimes.
