Alcatraz fall 2020: Photos of the new experience
Alcatraz Island is the Bay Area's most unique daytrip. In fall 2020, boats were running at 20% capacity to allow for social distancing, giving people plenty of room to roam on the island. It was a whole new Alcatraz experience! Here are photos that capture this unique time on the island, along with the history, gardens, and views you can get from the Alcatraz.
