How to Get to Angel Island
- Angel Island Ferry service from Tiburon
- Golden Gate Ferry Service from the Ferry Building
- Sail your boat there and pay a day-use fee of $15 or overnight fee of $30
Angel Island is connected to Tiburon via the Angel Island Ferry Co. dock in downtown Tiburon and to San Francisco by Golden Gate Ferry at the Ferry Building. (Blue and Gold Fleet ferries have been discontinued.) We have schedules for weekdays and weekends/holidays for both services below.
Tiburon service runs many times during the warm weather months, and runs limited schedules or only on weekends during the winter. The Golden Gate Ferry from San Francisco has weekday and weekend sailings year-round.
Weekday travelers from Marin can take the Sausalito or Larkspur ferries to the Ferry Building and then take the Angel Island ferry from there. Give yourself a safety margin between the two scheduled trips, since weather can sometimes delay one schedule and not another.
Schedules on this page cover service from the Angel Island Ferry Pier in Tiburon to Angel Island (top two tables) and from The Ferry Building in San Francisco to the ferry pier on Angel Island (scroll down to the bottom two tables), with separate listings for weekdays and weekends / holidays.
