Alcatraz Island is located off the coast of San Francisco. The now-closed penitentiary was famous for harboring all kinds of criminals. It became a record of human history and the justice system in the United States.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you disembark, you will be able to go all over the place the way you like it, through guided tours or audios. Nearby you can also find the lighthouse and the abandoned military base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
