Love crabbing here and fishing. I catch more crabs than fish here. Crabs are notoriously crafty here. They will swim up to you high low rigs and don't even think about a fish finder rig lol. 6 hook sabici rig and the bottom two are for the crabs lol.

This place according to me is one of the best spots on Embarcadero to admire the Bay bridge, go for a walk and take some pictures. Not too crowded and you'll usually see people with cameras. Specially good for golden hour or sunset which shows exactly at the back so you have a nice view of the city skyline. There's also a big boat called San Francisco Belle standing there which adds to the scenery. Love this spot!

Lovely walk right out to the open sea without the distractions of like pier 39!! And whether in the noon sun or evening this is worth walking right to the end! Imagine when a huge container ship comes by!! And the fishermen all so patient waiting for the fishes to bite.. often missed. But worth a walk if you have 2 hours or more at the pier..

A peaceful pier at the bay area.
I visited in the evening, and it was calm and quiet. It is a desired spot for photographers because we could capture a magnificent view of the Transamerica Pyramid which is one of the iconic buildings in the financial district of San Francisco. I heartily enjoyed the spectacular view of this building and its surrounding. From this pier, we could also get a stunning view of the bay bridge.
Along the pier, there are lots of benches where we can sit and relax while enjoying the scenery around. During my visit(in the evening) it is very cold so do prepare yourselves with warm clothes.
Visit here and get some awesome shot of the pyramid and the Bay Bridge.

Amazing pier. Very beautiful sight of bay bridge and the city behind it. Do visit it at the sunset time and at night when the bay bridge is lit. The sight's beautiful.
