Golden Gate Ferry

Golden Gate Ferry is a prominent public transit service and a vital maritime backbone of the San Francisco Bay Area’s transportation infrastructure. Operated as a dedicated marine division of the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District, the ferry service was launched in 1970 to alleviate severe automotive congestion on the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. Today, it serves as a critical commuter link and a popular choice for regional tourism, transporting millions of passengers annually across the bay.
