Things to do in San Francisco, California (CA): The Best Piers & Boardwalks
Every neighborhood in San Francisco has its own personality, from the hippie chic of the Upper Haight to the hipster grit of the Mission. The Marina district boasts trendy bistros and postcard-perfect views of the Golden Gate Bridge, while Noe Valley offers quaint and quiet boutiques. Wave hello to the sea lions at Pier 39, and sample local cheese and charcuterie at the Ferry Building. Sit in on a yoga session in Dolores Park or marvel at the Dutch Windmill across from Ocean Beach.

We enjoyed a long drive along the Embarcadero on a Sunday and noticed the numbers of people enjoying their strolls at a safe distance. On a sunny day this is one of the best places in San Francisco for a walk. Lots to see and enjoy, the waterfront, the piers, the Ferry Building, the Bay Bridge.

The Embarcadero can be very busy with tourists, joggers, cyclists, etc. The pier offers a nice respite from all the traffic as it juts out into the bay. With nice views of the Bay Bridge and the bay, it's a nice walk to the end and to stop and relax, even if just for a a short time.

I was fortunate enough to work on an acting gig at the new Cruise Ship Terminal at Pier 27 on The Embarcadero. Built for the America's Cup (I think) several years ago, it is now used by huge cruise ships like the Island Princess, which was there at the time I was there. The entrance is new, clean, and inviting. I am looking forward to taking a cruise from there.
