Fisherman s Wharf This is one of the country s most popular tourist attractions, just behind D isneyworld and Disneyland. D epending on wher e y ou are in F isherman s Wharf, it can feel a lot like D isneyland as w ell. S tretching from Van Ness Avenue to Kearny Street, and fr om the piers to B ay S treet, the wharf is home to PIER 39, a conglomeration of tacky tourist shops and o verpriced r estaurants. The pier cer tainly has a lot for kids to lo ve, including an aquarium; a carousel; playful stores like Puppets on the Pier; an endless array of chocolate, ice cream, and cookie shops; and the noisy, smelly, but irresistible sea lions. S teps away fr om the pier , the cheesy attractions continue, with places like Rainforest Cafe offering lackluster food in a gimmicky environment.
