Sausalito Ferry Terminal is a Golden Gate Ferry terminal in Sausalito, California. It serves as a connection between Marin County and San Francisco.

History

The Eureka, then the largest double-ended ferryboat in the world, carried passenger and automobile traffic on the Sausalito–San Francisco run from 1922 to 1941. (Pictured in San Francisco)

The terminal served as the southern terminus and ferry connection to San Francisco for the North Pacific Coast Railroad.[1]

A new dock was built in 1996.[2]
