Brilliant Lady is on the schedule in San Francisco, a typical day for the port. In a typical September, highs are near 70°F and lows near 56°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.

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.
