    Parking (click for map)
    • Ghirardelli Square: Open at 6am.

    • The Anchorage: Open at 6am.

    • 655 Beach St. Garage: Open 6am.

    • The Sheraton @ Fisherman's Wharf: Open 6am.

    • Pier 39: 24 Hours

    Street parking, a few blocks south or west of the Wharf, is a particularly good option on Sundays, when the 2-hour limit on unmetered residential parking does not apply.

    Parking meters, however, operate seven days a week, and the fines for overparking either at meters or in the two-hour zones are expensive!
