In Short – Nowhere in the Bay Area can you immerse yourself in as much nautical nuance as at the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park. Located beside Fisherman's Wharf, the park features a wealth of sailing artifacts including an enormous sidewheel ferry, two sail schooners, a tug boat, a World War II submarine, and more. When traipsing about the ships gets tiresome, stop by the museum, which boasts a hearty collection of artifacts, oral histories, periodicals, and temporary exhibits. – –
