摘要：San Francisco bay first appeared in chronicles and navigation charts two centuries before being officially discovered. The news of the existence of a great shelter to the north of New Spain encouraged diverse expeditions and brought back mythical images in literature and cartography. This mysterious enclave that maps glided stealthily was looked for unsuccessfully by a number of seafarers. Systematic advances to take control of the Pacific during the period known as the Enlightenment dispelled the obscurity to which the territory had been submitted and did shed light on the harbor that had been hidden for so long. The expeditions of the 18th century finally banished the last frontier of the New Spanish Great North and from that period onward an image of San Francisco that exceeded its own legend was created.↓La bahía de San Francisco apareció en las crónicas y en las cartas de marear desde dos siglos antes de ser descubierta. La noticia de la existencia de un gran refugio en el Septentrión Novohispano alentó expediciones y recreó mitos en la literatura y en la cartografía. Sucesivas navegaciones buscaron sin éxito el misterioso enclave que los mapas deslizaban sigilosamente. El avance sistemático por el control del Pacífico, ya en el siglo de la Razón, disipó las brumas y dio luz al puerto que tanto tiempo había permanecido escondido. Las expediciones ilustradas terminaron por desterrar la última frontera del Gran Norte, elaborándose desde entonces una nueva imagen de San Francisco que superaría su propia leyenda.
