Review:
Visitors to Angel Island State Park, the largest island in the Bay Area, can gain access by ferry or private boat from 8am to sunset. Ferries leave from San Francisco, Alameda, Tiburon, and Oakland; however, ferry service is limited during the winter. There are no dogs allowed on the island, and roller skates, skateboards, and scooters are prohibited as well. Campsites are available for overnight camping, but campers must use charcoal grills as food fires are not permitted. The island is rugged, and the waters are very choppy and hazardous for swimming. Visitors should take caution as there are no lifeguards. Most visitors come to the island to hike the summit of Mt. Caroline Livermore.
