Pier 39 Marina

  Pier 39 Marina sits at the corner of Beach Street and the Embarcadero in San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf district. Opened in 1978, this marina not only serves as a picturesque dock for boats but also offers visitors a vibrant hub of shopping and dining. One of its standout features is a 300-foot-long pier where boat tours launch, giving guests a unique view of the Bay and the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. During the summer months, the marina comes alive with events and festivals, adding to its lively atmosphere. Here, visitors can enjoy watching sea lions basking on the docks or embark on a cruise to explore the stunning surrounding waters.
