Commuting on the ferry is soul enriching. Taking in the open sky, the ocean air, and the view of the bay beats the tunnels of Bart any day. Highly recommend taking it from east bay to SF.
- Forget the crowds and delays of BART. This is the civilized way to get to SF. Grab a coffee at the snack bar, hop on the free wifi and enjoy the amazing views of the bay!
Adrian PhillipsApril 7, 2016Great photo opportunities if you get up for the early ferry. Plenty of seating, if you get on with a bike at Oakland, put it out back. Much more civilized way to commute than the shitty BART.
If you are a new ferry commuter, make sure you are getting on the right ferry, SF Ferry bldg and SSF Oyster point ferries leave right after each other!!!- SF ferry building and SSF Oyster point ferries leave right after each other, so make sure you are on the right ferry!
San Francisco Bay FerryMay 23, 2012Do you commute from the East Bay to South San Francisco? Our new Alameda-Oakland to South San Francisco service starts June 4! http://sanfranciscobayferry.com/ssf/
Nice, convenient way to commute to SF. Plus parking is validated. Need some more coffee/beer nearby.- It’s a great way to get to SF. Super chill, no drama, free WiFi, great views.
Kendal CockrelAugust 16, 2018My favorite way to go to and from Oakland. Beautiful views and a smooth ride.
Grab a beer at BevMo! (Embarcadero and Clay) and enjoy it on the boat. Just keep it on the DL around the the crew members.
mike lyonsNovember 15, 2014Reasonably priced cocktails on the boat. Best way to commute to and from SF.
Did you know that sweet Maui onions come through the Howard Terminal on those big containers? Well, now you do!
- For anyone living near jack london sq. And who work in SSF, this is a great way to commute...
There is a power outlet on the pier if your phone battery is almost dead.
It is nearly always intensely windy here, so come prepared.
