Think of it as an open-air mall on a waterfront pier. Not that difficult to find as it’s located in the Fisherman’s Wharf district – close to North Beach. Parking is relatively easy and cheap, however, using the city’s fine public trans system is a better way to go.
Be ready to be greeted by plenty of shops tailored to the tourist trade, so if you’re looking for that take home souvenir of your trip, this is the place. There’s also great entertainment and worthwhile dining places.
Enjoy views of one the world’s most outstanding natural bay and harbor. Just across the way is that famous prison island – Alcatraz. For those adventurous spirits, why not take the scenic cruise to this notorious penitentiary?
