Cruise Ships in San Francisco on Sat, May 15, 2027
Emerald Princess is in San Francisco on a day that is busier than most for the port. In a typical May, highs are near 64°F and lows near 51°F. One thing to see: Alcatraz Island. Ferry from Pier 33 to the island and its cellhouse audio tour. Berthing here: pier 80, a few miles south, is occasionally used when the main berths are full.
