Two Shows in Oakland - Just get there!
By Ferry
Published: April, 2003
Ferries are a fun and effective way to travel around the San Francisco Bay Area. They are a great way to attend the upcoming Boat Shows in Oakland. To get to Pacific Sail Expo, the ferry in Oakland arrives at PSE’s doorstep. The Oakland Ferry Terminal is literally next door to the West Basin of the Boat Show. It can solve the parking question San Francisco Terminal One is meeting for most Ferry traffic during the week. On weekends, that duty is shared by Fisherman’s Wharf Terminal 41.

Vallejo to SF $9.00
