Cruise Ships in San Francisco on Thu, Sep 2, 2027
A quiet day in San Francisco with one ship, Carnival Luminosa. In a typical September, highs are near 70°F and lows near 56°F. One thing to see: Ferry Building Marketplace. A food hall with cheese, bread, oysters and coffee, free to browse. Berthing here: pier 80, a few miles south, is occasionally used when the main berths are full.

1 ship ending and starting a cruise
A turnaround day: ships are unloading and boarding guests, so terminals and roads are busiest in the morning. This is not a count of visitors in town. Schedules change, so check with Heather Hills from Flow Voyages.
