Cruise Ships in San Francisco on Tue, May 18, 2027

A quiet day in San Francisco with one ship, Asuka II. In a typical May, highs are near 64°F and lows near 51°F. One thing to see: Pier 39 Sea Lions. Sea lions haul out on the dock platforms and are free to watch. Berthing here: pier 80, a few miles south, is occasionally used when the main berths are full.

About 900 potential guests (lower-berth capacity, all ships)

An estimate for planning, not a headcount. It uses each ship's lower-berth capacity. Real occupancy often runs higher, crew go ashore too, not everyone gets off, and schedules change or ships skip ports for weather. Check with your cruise line or Heather Hills from Flow Voyages.
