Experience Life on Alcatraz
The Rock rocks!
When you visit Alcatraz Island, you’ll get an up-close and personal look at the West Coast’s first lighthouse, first fort and, of course, the notorious federal penitentiary, which for many years, the public could not view.Located in the middle of San Francisco Bay, Alcatraz also features stunning natural wildlife, including gardens, tide pools and bird colonies.
As a visitor, you will explore what’s left of the prison and learn about the island’s occupation by Native Americans in the late 60s and early 70s. And you won’t want to miss the island’s magnificent views of the bay.
