Motorcoach Parking
Motorcoaches may only pick up and drop off in the PIER 39 passenger and taxi loading zone on a space-available basis. Please be aware that tour bus parking is no longer available on Piers 30/32 due to structural problems. There are many tour bus loading/unloading zones around PIER 39. In addition to the loading zones, there are also metered on-street parking spaces around Fisherman’s Wharf for tour bus parking. These spaces provide tour bus drivers a place to wait after unloading passengers until the passengers are ready to be picked up after their visit to The PIER.
