Then, for the grand finale, the cruise will get into position near the Golden Gate Bridge for spectacular views of the fireworks that will be launched above the bridge.
The Golden Gate Bridge 75thAnniversary Fireworks Cruise price is $66 per person and includes the aforementioned appetizer buffet and (1) beverage. Guests should arrive no later than 7:00 p.m. at Pier 43½ to check in for the cruise. Advance ticket purchases are recommended, as this event will sell out.
