Alcatraz Island

Embarcadero and Powell St, (Pier 39), San Francisco, CA
Tel: (415) 705-5555 • Web: Visit this site »
 

No longer a prison for some of America's most dangerous offenders, Alcatraz is part of the National Park Service and is a must-see for visitors to the city. Once on the island, you will certainly be captivated by its history and its incredible beauty. Take your camera because regardless of the view, a photo opportunity awaits. Also, dress in layers (even during the summer months) because the island can be breezy and inside the prison walls it is cold and damp. If you want to scare your kiddies into good behavior, there is a cellhouse audio tour of Alcatraz; for more info check out the website. Admission: Adult USD13.25 Adult; USD8 Kids (6-12); USD11 Senior.
