Product

Ferry SF

Shipped under the Jmil Swell mark, free on the App Store and Google Play.

Schedules, live ship tracking, and rider alerts for every San Francisco Bay ferry: Golden Gate Ferry, San Francisco Bay Ferry, Angel Island Tiburon Ferry, Treasure Island Ferry, and Alcatraz City Cruises. Built by a rider who wanted one clear view of the bay.

Web app beta: still in testing, so expect rough edges. The iPhone and Android apps are the finished versions.

What it does

Everything you need before you board, and while you're on the water.

Five services, your choice

Golden Gate Ferry, San Francisco Bay Ferry, Angel Island Tiburon Ferry, Treasure Island Ferry, and Alcatraz City Cruises. Turn on the ones you ride.

Schedules

Departures for every port across the bay with gates, delays, and ship names. The next seven days are saved on your device, so times still show offline.

Live map

Live ship positions, predicted positions along the real ferry channels when coverage is thin, a bay overview to jump to any port, and a satellite view. Tap a ship for its trip and specs.

Alerts & news

Rider alerts for Golden Gate Ferry, San Francisco Bay Ferry, and Alcatraz appear on the Schedule, plus a Golden Gate news feed so service changes surface quickly.

Built for riders

No account required. Location stays on-device for nearest terminal and map centering, and is never uploaded to Ferry SF servers.

FerrySF Pro

Optional subscription for unlimited live map access and an ad-free Schedule tab. Free tier includes a short map preview each session.
