    When you're on a boat you have a nice view of the city and of course of the sea lions lying in the sun (and of the tourists watching the sea lions).

    Come here at the right time of the year and you will get to see hundreds of Sea Lions rest there heads on the boardwalk of this famous San Francisco Pier.

    This is where the Bay ferries dock, where the sea lions hang out and where the local aquarium is housed. We took a boat tour from here that went out underneath the Golden Gate Bridge and circled back by Alcatraz. You'll also find a useful visitor's center here and tons of touristy shops and restaurants.

    Come see the sea lions at Pier 39. Yeah, sure you'll be surrounded by tourists, but it's still a pretty cool sight to see. This one's especially good if you have kids. They're sure to be entrances by the sight of all these interesting creatures.

    Lots of shopping oppertunities for those who wish!
    Also a few good eating and drinking spots, but, the best of this area is the free display given by the seals - they're great fun

    Visit Pier 39 to see the famous sea lions! :) I thought they were just so cute! In Pier 39, you'll also find arcades, a turbo ride simulation theater, an underwater aquarium, shops and restaurants. :)

    Pier 39 at Fisherman's Wharf - home to hundreds of wild sea lions that come in from San Fancisco Bay. They are fun to watch!
