Public Transportation Options

Getting You Here To Alcatraz City Cruises
Pier 33 Alcatraz Landing is conveniently located along San Francisco’s northern waterfront promenade, otherwise known as The Embarcadero. Pier 33 Alcatraz Landing is near the intersections of Sansome Street and The Embarcadero, and Bay Street and The Embarcadero. There are many transportation options available from a variety of public and private transportation services, as well as walking, biking and driving.

Parking is limited and very expensive in the Fisherman’s Wharf area, especially during peak visitation months. We recommend you enhance your Alcatraz experience by being dropped off or taking one of the many public transit services that reach the Pier 33 Alcatraz Landing area. As a bonus, public transit may also be the least expensive way to reach Alcatraz Landing!

Privately-operated transportation services such as taxicabs, limousines, pedi-cabs and ride-sharing services such as Uber or Lyft, will provide direct service to Pier 33 Alcatraz Landing upon request. In ride-sharing apps, it is best to enter the physical address as Pier 33 Alcatraz Landing. For more detailed information about other transportation options visit SFMTA getting around. Be advised that prices may vary widely for these private services.

Please note: Piers along San Francisco’s waterfront are divided between odd and even numbered piers. All odd number piers are north of San Francisco’s famous Ferry Building, at the foot of Market Street, and all the even numbered piers are located south of the Ferry Building. Piers 30, 32 and 34 are miles away from the Alcatraz Island tour embarcation point of Pier 33.
