People go to Pier 39 and totally miss the point of what Fisherman’s Wharf is all about. It’s not about buying another sweatshirt. Trust me. And, it’s not about visiting the Kinkade “art” gallery.
It’s about the fishermen who made their living catching fresh seafood and bringing it to Fisherman’s Wharf to be expertly prepared for visitors at one of a handful of great restaurants on the wharf. Well, things have changed, but if you walk around behind some of the restaurants, you’ll catch a glimpse of the way it was. Fishermen still bring back goodies from the sea, and some offer tours, which give you a close-up view of the harbor via a real fishing boat. Go for it. Do something different. That’s what this blog is about – doing fun and quirky things in San Francisco.
