The only place I liked in San francisco so far.
Tom CoatesApril 4, 2018
I don’t know really what to say. Pier 39 and Fisherman’s Wharf May have been cool tourist destinations once but now they’re tourist traps. Only good for seeing the seals

I loved how when we were there we caught the naked bicycling group. Wow! Fun times. The walk down Fisherman's Wharf is a tourists dream come true.

Make sure to visit the sea lions on the NW corner of the pier! Their antics will keep you engaged for hours.

The juggler at the Keith show is amazing! Make sure to check him out!

The best clam chowder in a bowl is the first one you see on the right. Don't bother trying the other ones. They might all look the same, but they don't taste it.

Great tourist spot to wander around for an afternoon
