When you visit San Francisco for the first time, visiting Alcatraz is definitely a must-do. The Rock, as Alcatraz is known locally, was originally a lighthouse and a military out post and prison before becoming a federal prison. The likes of Al Capone, among others, served their time here. The tour takes you from the shore to this ominous island and the guides are all well-informed and always ready to answer your questions. The inherent drama of Alcatraz itself makes it worth seeing, but the added touches and expert treatment by the guides only underscore how essential it is to see this dramatic facility when you are in the Bay Area.

With the Pacific Ocean literally at your front door in San Francisco, going scuba diving is a truly adventurous idea. If you're not quite sure where to start, let the experts at Bamboo Reef guide you to make sure that your first dive is as awesomely memorable as it can be! This experience will offer you a whole new take on water recreation.
