GoPlanit Reviews for Fisherman's Wharf
definitely one of the top tourist spots in SF. Grab some yummy fresh clam chowder from any of the restaurants or on the strip, see the 'exhibitionists' perform as well.

Great for tourist. It's a wonderful walk straight down from Pier 39 where you will find Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum, Wax Museum, Hooters, street performers, etc. After 12am, it's the perfect place to set up seats/tent, throw a net or fishing rod into the sea, and snatch some seafood !
