Golden Gate Bay Cruise From San Francisco

• 1 Hour
• All year round

The original classic. A jaw-dropping one-hour nonstop adventure for your senses. Not to mention the most famous bridge in the world and an equally infamous island prison. You’ll cruise alongside San Francisco’s remarkable cityscape and the lively neighbourhood of North Beach, the famous swimming clubs of Aquatic Park, the historic vessels moored at Hyde Street Pier, the San Francisco Maritime National Park, Ghirardelli Square and much more.

As you head west toward the Golden Gate Bridge, you’ll view Fort Mason and the Marina District, which was damaged in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. Next, take in views of Crissy Field and the lush hillsides of the Presidio – both former Army installations – that are now part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Don’t miss incredible photo opportunities while cruising directly under the massive 4,200-foot long, 746-foot high span of the Golden Gate Bridge.

As you turn back toward the city, you’ll travel past the wildlife reserves of the Marin headlands and the legendary town of Sausalito, which was once home to the late-1960s Flower Generation. With Angel Island State Park to your left, you slowly cruise around the infamous Alcatraz Island, hearing stories from inmates and historians about the famous prison. On your way back to Fisherman’s Wharf, you’ll see the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and Coit Tower.
