San Francisco is one of the best places for tourist attractions hence it is always important to remember that you are the luckiest person in case you are planning to go San Francisco you will surely have load of fun and an awesome as well as an unforgettable experience. It is one of the finest experiences and there are eighteen islands that are scattered in the bay of the place. These eighteen islands also include the uninhabited rocks, protected wildlife refugees, and even developed and the beautiful islands which have a sizable amount of population. Some of the islands in San Francisco which are very famous and known for their tourist attractions are Alcatraz. Many of these islands are very easily accessible and they can be reached easily with some of the most exciting modes like the private watercrafts such as sailboats, the best part in visiting each of these islands is that each island has an exciting USP like each of the products available in the market do possess. After visiting each of these tourist attractions you are sure to get a rejoicing feel which would make your visit a beautiful experience.

Many of the islands that are present in San Francisco bay are set aside as parks and refuges. One of the most popular islands is the Angel Island which is a state park accessible by the ferry from several locations around the bay, and the most beautiful national park called as Alcatraz. The visitors to these islands can visit all throughout the year; however the peak time for the visitors is the summer season. Other than this there are number of wildlife refuges which includes the East, west Marin islands, Brooks Island and the Bair Island. But on the other hand the Brook Island is considered as an important part of the Eastern bay regional districts and it is home for many migrated birds, wetlands and wetlands and the walking paths. The exclusive park for the wildlife refuge in Southern bay is the Bair Island; this park is considered as one of the most important part of the bay area ecology.

There are different kinds of the islands that you can find on the bay of San Francisco; few of them have the beautiful rocky outcroppings. The islands with the glorified rocky look are the Red rock island which is present in the western side of Richmond Bridge, along with the Eastern and the Western sisters called as the Ballena Bay Island which is situated next to Alameda and the Pat rock. Red rock is one of the few privately owned islands in the bay of San Francisco. However the fact of the development always remains a potential challenge as the bay lies in almost three countries so this is a challenge that has to be catered to.

I have mentioned about the inhabited island one of them is the Coast Guard Island which is made usage only for military purposes. The other inhabited parks that are open to the public are the Yerba Buena Island that lies in the middle of the San Francisco Bridge.
