This 740 acre island, San Francisco Bay’s largest island, has been a Civil War Camp, an immigration station for Chinese immigrants, a major military embarkation center during World Wars I and II, and a Nike missile base. The island offers environmental camp sites, biking and hiking trails through woodlands and meadows, and numerous other trails crisscross the island and climb to the 781-foot summit of Mount Caroline Livermore. You can also sunbathe and enjoy the picnic areas at protected groves, and the island offers wonderful views of Marin County, the City of San Francisco and a spectacular view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Angel Island in San Francisco Bay is open all year and is accessible only by ferry. There is a $2.00 per person Daily Fee for admission to the island.
