Worth going for the Sea Lions!
While exploring San Francisco, a trip isn't complete without a visit to Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39. Yes, it's a tourist trap. Most things are overpriced. BUT --- the views from the end of the pier are amazing. They are either really

Been going for 18 Years...
I can watch those seals for hours! How adorable. I usually go down the street to Rainforest Cafe for lunch though. I'm not usually a Cesar Salad person but Rainforest has the best one I HAVE EVER TASTED! I've never tried the Pier 39 Cuisine myself. But there is several ways to go wrong with sea food even though when cooked properly it is awesome. I never hear anybody really ranting and raving about the Piers sea food so I kinda like to stick to budget. Getting a nice sourdough bowl of hot clam chowder is my favorite...but you have to look out for cheap chowder marketers who are just out to get a dime. They'll sell you the canned crap so watch out.
