Location Highlights:POPULAR DESTINATIONS - - ALCATRAZ ISLANDThis famous prison was once the chilling destination of maximum-security convicts. Alcatraz now sees hundreds of thousands more tourists per year than the total number of prisoners in its entire 29-year life as a federal penitentiary! Audio-assisted tours in several languages recount the history of the island and its famous inmate inhabitants: Machine Gun Kelley, Al Capone, Robert Stroud, "the Birdman of Alcatraz." On a clear day, the views of the San Francisco skyline and bridges alone are worth the crossing by ferryboat. - ANGEL ISLANDJust a quick ferry ride from Tiburon is Angel Island which you will find quite possibly the best view of the Bay Area from its peak, Mount Livermore (781 feet).
