The Pacific Ocean swells. - Take a cruise around Alcatraz Island under the Golden Gate Bridge at the mouth of San Francisco Bay. Once Fort Point is crossed, the hull is directly exposed to waves and winds from the Pacific Ocean, and once again you understand that San Francisco Bay is a natural good harbor. To tell the truth, I felt that I wanted to go out to the open sea a little more so that I could see the whole bay mouth.
