Nicknamed the Deuces Wild: two of everything.

The stops

  • Alcatraz, circled from the water. This isn't a landing tour; we don't go ashore.
  • Angel Island, seen from the water
  • The Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge, from underneath
  • Two of the Bay's lighthouses along the way
  • The USS Pampanito, the historic submarine at Fisherman's Wharf

Private, priced per boat

The whole boat is yours: up to 6 guests, children included in the count, paced by you. $1,050 covers the boat and captain for 3 hours, which is $175 a person with 6 aboard.

What to bring

A camera and a jacket. The Bay runs cool even in summer.

Bring your own food and soft drinks. Miss Molly is an alcohol-free boat unless you've arranged a celebration toast with Captain Molly ahead of time, like a birthday toast.

Just want the Golden Gate? See the Golden Gate Bridge boat tour. Want the lighthouses in more depth? The lighthouse tour runs 4 hours.

Where we meet

Hyde Street Harbor, 2951 Hyde St, at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. Text Captain Molly from the bench when you arrive; don't walk to the boat on your own.
