Pier 39

Pier 39 is a shopping center and popular tourist attraction built on a pier in San Francisco. It features shops, restaurants, a video arcade, street performances, the Aquarium of the Bay, and virtual 3D rides. A two-story carousel is a dominant feature near the pier's end. The site also offers close-up views of California sea lions hauled out on docks, making it a family-oriented spot. Visitors can enjoy the family-friendly entertainment and marine mammal sightings, plus access to historic F Market streetcars. Attractions include a rubber duck store and an infinite mirror maze. From the pier, views of Angel Island, Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay Bridge are possible. Blue & Gold Fleet's bay cruises depart from here.
