Skystar Wheel Delivers a Thrilling View of Fisherman’s Wharf

A temporary installation of the Skystar Observation Wheel at Fisherman’s Wharf is now open allowing Bay Area families to get a bird’s-eye view of San Francisco.

This oversized Ferris Wheel features enclosed gondolas with bench seating that will take you high above The City for a 10-minute ride. Each car seats up to six people. After three years in Golden Gate Park, this wheel rolled to a new neighborhood for views and fun.
