The park is open 365 days a year from sunrise to sunset however unless you have your own boat you will need to ride a ferry to the island and the ferry schedules are seasonal.
Blue and Gold from San Francisco and the Angel Island Ferry from Tiburon.
We do not recommend missing the last ferry. It’s very expensive to get you off the island. A private boat will need to be chartered to take you back to the city.
No, but there are ten (10) campsite which are a good hike from the ferry. All campsites can be reserved at www.reservecalifornia.com

No, unfortunately, all boat slips and moorings are first come first serve. You can stay overnight on the moorings but all boats have to leave the slips at sunset.
Only service dogs are allowed on Angel Island.
There are two lots closest to the ferry, one to the left and one to the right however they are also the most expensive. If price is important arrive early and park in one of the bank parking lots (weekends) and walk down to the ferry. There is a free public lot on Mar West. It’s about a 9 minute walk to the ferry.
You cannot make reservations with a Groupon certificate. Please come to the Angel Island Café and present your Groupon voucher (on your phone is fine) and we will give you a tram ticket. To guarantee a seat it is best to take the first ferry to the island.
Yes, but you are not guaranteed a seat once you get off. If you do decide to get off the tram, please let the driver know when boarding and retain you ticket.
Only if there is room. If the tram is sold out you can leave the stroller behind the fence at the tram boarding area.
Most definitely! It’s fun and educational.
It stops briefly at the entrance but it does not go down into the station. If you choose to get off the tram at the USIS you can catch a shuttle back to the cove (they depart at 12:45 and 3:00 with pick ups at the bathroom) or you can walk back to the cove, which is about one mile including stairs, or one and half miles without stairs.
