Pier 39 is one of San Francisco’s most popular waterfront attractions and not only popular with people- seals love it too. These blubbery layabouts visited the pier in 1990 and have now taken over the entire dock space during winter the barking herd numbers close to 900.
The 45 acre Pier 39 has so much to offer along with the seals there are attractions, restaurants and plenty of novelty shopping. Houdini’s Magic Shop and Le beastro’s Dog Boutique are two of the favorites. There is always something going on at the pier, with performances, buskers and special events happening daily.
