The Pier 39 / Pier 31 Ferry Terminal at Fisherman’s Wharf
Sausalito Ferry re-opens! Click here for new Sausalito ferry schedules for Golden Gate Ferry and Blue & Gold Fleet
This terminal is operated by Blue & Gold Fleet, and it is one of the hubs of activity at San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf.
Blue & Gold operates both commuter ferries (Sausalito and Tiburon in Marin, as well as Oakland, Alameda, Vallejo and more), State Park ferries (Angel Island) and a variety of Bay Tour Cruises at this terminal. These tours of the Bay are primarily marketed to area visitors, but I was born in San Francisco and took my wife on one of those cruises when she first came to San Francisco to meet my parents.
The Pier 41 site is close to the site of the San Francisco terminal for the first Sausalito-San Francisco Ferry, a private company’s service that first sailed almost 150 years ago, in May, 1868. Commuters in that era must have been in great shape, because the cable car that goes over the steep hill from Fisherman’s Wharf to downtown San Francisco wasn’t built until 1888, 20 years after the ferry service began!
