Angel Island Immigration Station - "The Ellis Island of the West."
About the Angel Island Immigration Station - The following is an excerpt from Angel Island Immigration Station Foundations Website:
“The immigration experience is a common thread binding the histories of most Americans. Whether escaping persecution, poverty or lack of economic prospects, immigrants have come to the United States for the ideals it represents — freedom, democracy, and opportunity. Most Americans know the story of Ellis Island, where immigrants crossing the Atlantic Ocean were processed. But the story of its West Coast counterpart, Angel Island, is little-known.
Located in the middle of San Francisco Bay, Angel Island Immigration Station was routinely the first stop for immigrants crossing the Pacific Ocean. The Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation (AIISF) is the nonprofit partner of California State Parks and the National Park Service in the effort to preserve, restore and interpret the historic immigration station.”

With Angel Island’s pristine, secluded beaches, views of the San Francisco skyline, the Golden Gate Bridge and the vast beauty of the San Francisco Bay – Angel Island State Park offers many scenic picnic areas for you to enjoy a day trip “getaway” on the bay.
The secret to pulling together the perfect picnic is all in the planning. It is also a fun idea to keep the whole event a surprise, which will add excitement and mystery to your rendezvous.
In addition to helping you travel to Angel Island on the Angel Island Ferry from Tiburon, CA, below are some of Captain Maggie’s top tips to planning the perfect picnic menu, and pulling together the basics with ease:
- Beverages: In addition to having bottled water on hand, decide on the main beverage you will be serving such as a nice bottle of red wine or champagne.
- Starters That Double as Main Fare: For those who “like it hot” – take advantage of the BBQ’s available on Angel Island to grill up your favorite meats and/or a few dozen fresh oysters (just 110 calories per dozen!), and serve them with a fresh cocktail sauce, a classic Cesar or Spinach Salad, and a loaf of crusty french bread.
- For a meatier affair – prepare an assortment of finger sandwiches such as:
- Chicken salad on rye
- Smoked turkey and gouda on wheat
- Smoked salmon, capers, and cream cheese on crostinis
- You can even make ahead a few roasted veggie panini sandwiches to take along
- Bring on some real Amore’ – and treat your sweetie to a traditional Italian Antipasti which pairs perfectly with a nice red, and consists of an array of olives, cold meats, and hard cheeses, served with assorted crostini, breads, and crackers.
- Sweet endings: A picnic is not a picnic without a few decadent desserts in the picture. Pack chocolate covered strawberries in a totable container, a few bars of dark chocolate, and of course, brownies or some quick n’ easy Skinny Fudge Having some easy to eat fresh fruit on hand is always a nice idea too.
- Plan Ahead: Make sure you have your serve-ware, napkins, wet-naps, and utensils packed, and try to think ahead to include anything you may need such as a blanket or beach chairs to lounge on, and an extra sweater or jacket so you stay comfortable and cozy no matter what the weather may bring…and just remember to pack perishables in a cooler with lots of ice to keep everything fresh.

Additional Angel Island Beaches can be accessed by foot to include Perles Beach, Quarry Beach (pictured above), Camp Reynolds Beach, and China Cove. Access to some of the beaches may be limited at times, so do pick up a map at the Visitors Center located near the dock at Ayala Cove when you arrive, and ask about any beach and trail closures and/or updates.
Weekend Warrior Essentials ~ What to Bring: Sunscreen, a broad rimmed hat, sunglasses, water, etc. Also, in addition to any food and beverages you want to enjoy on your getaway, pack along a blanket or beach chairs to sit on, and a swimsuit and towels in case you want to take a dip.

Angel Island Tiburon Ferry receives Red Cross Life Saving Organization Award. Photo: Marin IJ
On behalf of the Angel Island Tiburon Ferry staff, it was truly an honor to receive the Life Saving Organization Award at the 2012 American Red Cross Heroes Breakfast.
We also feel privileged to stand along side the outstanding community members and award heroes present at the ceremony, and are grateful for the opportunity to be a part of such an uplifting and motivating event.
As California’s only remaining family owned and operated ferry boat company, we are happy to be a part of the Marin community, and the greater San Francisco Bay Area. We take our job to serve and protect you on the water very seriously. Of course, we are a recreational outlet and we are also here to make sure you enjoy yourselves on our boats…and have fun in this beautiful place on earth…we call paradise.
Angel Island Tiburon Ferry’s youngest “crew member” and hero to be acknowledged by the American Red Cross is Ben Bryerton, age 6, who, during one of the water rescues was responsible for manning the boat’s communication system to alert the crew when the Coast Guard was on the line while the rescue was taking place.
Our maritime motto is “be prepared for anything.” The public acknowledgement of our lifesaving rescues provides a great opportunity to reinforce just how important it is to “be prepared.” Whether your out on the water, on Angel Island, driving to work, or at home, having emergency supplies and a family plan in place BEFORE a situation occurs – will give you the peace of mind and tools needed to handle whatever curve-balls life throws your way.
It has been our family’s pleasure to serve you on San Francisco Bay for well over 100 years, and we look forward to many more years of safe & happy sailing ahead.

As outlined on parks.ca.gov – The Mission of The California Children’s Outdoor Bill of Rights is:
“To encourage California’s children to participate in outdoor activities and discover their heritage. “
