5. Golden Gate Bridge
The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans over the Golden Gate Strait — the Pacific Ocean entrance to San Francisco Bay. It is one of the most iconic symbols of San Francisco and one of the most recognizable landmarks in the world.
6. Pier 39
Pier 39 is a fun and exciting tourist attraction in the Fisherman’s Wharf area. Its main draw is its sea lion population. Dozens of sea lions bask in the sun on the docks year-round. As our tour boat passed by the sea lions, they barely raised their heads to acknowledge our presence.
In addition to the sea lions, Pier 39 offers other activities and attractions. I took a bay cruise with the Blue & Gold Fleet, visited the Aquarium of the Bay, and enjoyed some of the best seafood on the West Coast.
