When it comes to reasons to visit Treasure Island, first and foremost, go for the view. San Francisco’s entire northern waterfront from bridge to bridge is picture-perfect here. The island is also home to public art, flea markets and festivals throughout the year. HOW TO GET HERE Accessible by car and the Muni 108 bus line, departing from the Transbay Transit Center. Clipper Cove also offers recreational vessel anchorages and daily or monthly slip rentals at the marina. WHAT TO SEE & DO New construction on the island will create the most environmentally sustainable large development project in U.S. history, including 500 hotel rooms, 8,000 new residential units and more. In the meantime, there will be a few changes as the old makes way for the new. The island, a player in the urban winery phenom, also has a new brewery: Woods Island Club at Clipper Cove. On the last weekend of every month, the dog-friendly Treasure Island Flea is teeming with local vendors, artists and more. WHERE TO EAT Hungry? There’s a container-based (think of large shipping containers) temporary food court near the Great Lawn.
