The privately owned Angel Islands-Tiburon Ferry Company runs a free daily service between the two ports. It will stop at Ayala Cove Ferry Terminal in Tiburon and Ayala Cove Ferry Terminal on the island. The trip is only about eight minutes long and will run every day except Thanksgiving and Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PG&amp;E serves Angel Island and Tiburon via a series of undersea cables that cross the Raccoon Strait from Tiburon. The islands&#8217; peak electrical load is approximately 100 kW, and the cables have begun to deteriorate and be out of service. Because of this, PG&amp;E is now exploring using the islands for a DER microgrid pilot project. It is also working with other local businesses in the area to help the community save money on electric bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pier for the Angel Island Tiburon Ferry is on Main St. in Tiburon. There is a small passageway between the Water&#8217;s Edge Hotel and the Main Treat. There are also decks for waiting passengers. You can reach the pier after crossing the boardwalk. Alternatively, you can take the ferries to the affluent suburb of Angel Island. Regardless of whether you&#8217;re traveling to Tiburon for business or pleasure, you&#8217;ll be glad you made the trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re travelling on the Bay Area ferry, it&#8217;s worth stopping in Tiburon and Angel Island. Both have spectacular views of the city. On this occasion, the tide was flooded, so the wind accompanied the current, which made for some action shots. The tide on this day was light and the sand was incredibly slick. This was the perfect opportunity to snap photos of the bridge, the Richmond Bridge, and the San Quinton Prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Angel Islands and Tiburon ferry service is popular and affordable. The ferries are certified for 400 passengers. During the flu pandemic, the service was suspended. However, the ferry resumed operations in July. The ferries require masks for all passengers. You can also visit the historic Angel Island Immigration Station. The facility, which served as an immigration station until the late 1800s, was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1997. During this time, over five million immigrants were processed there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is little to do on Angel Island itself, but there are plenty of things to see and do. The ferry service is a great way to visit the island and Tiburon, and it&#8217;s also an easy way to get to the San Francisco peninsula. While it&#8217;s not a huge place, it can serve as a great base for exploring Marin County and wine country. In addition, the ferry service costs $7.50 each way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Angel Island and Tiburon are only two miles apart, but they do share a ferry terminal.
