Fisherman's Wharf





San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf is a world famous tourist attraction and a thriving and vibrant local neighborhood and commercial area. Home to world-class dining, shopping, hotels and many entertainment opportunites. This is the place to start your San Francisco experience.
Fisherman's Wharf is the important center of the city's historic fishing industry. The Wharf area is also the launching point for Bay Cruises, charters and ferry to tourists to visit Alcatraz Island..
Pier 39, Anchorage Square, and the Cannery are places of interest. The world famous Ghirardelli has been converted to an open-air center filled with fun shops and restaurants. Here you can even see the company's original chocolate-making machines.

One of the great pleasures of visiting San Francisco is a stroll along this city’s historic Fisherman’s Wharf. Here visitors can peer down at the fishing crafts riding in the calm water, or pause to watch fishermen mending a net. Most of the boats in view belong to a "third generation" of fishing craft, which have made history at Fisherman's Wharf.
