Just go! You won't regret and it will probably be the most fantastic photo gallery you've ever been too. Bookings only. EDIT: be respectful of the time you book. A senior staff member gave me quite an attitude because I arrived 20 minutes after the scheduled time - despite the rain pouring down outside and the fact that the gallery was relatively empty. It was my third visit then. Haven't returned since.

Fascinating gallery housing beautiful photography collections. It is free by appointment, and definitely worth it! The images are displayed blankly, however there is the option to purchase a booklet guide that gives credit to the photographers and their images. Overall a great place to marvel at for a while as the sounds of the Bay Bridge echo overhead.

I'm sure this has been said by many other people, but this is just an amazing place and a hidden treasure. I've visited many times, and always enjoy their photography shows. I really hope they can stay at this location.

You can take amazing shots of the bay bridge here right next to SF fire station

Great place to see unusual and interesting photography exhibits. Not far from the ferry building and right next to the Bay Bridge. Not open for months between exhibits. Attendance by online reservation only. Free. I think they're now preparing their sixth or seventh exhibit (August 2016). I haven't missed one yet. Have lunch at the ferry building. See the exhibit. Then take your own inspired photographs on San Francisco's captivating waterfront.

One of the best galleries in the US. It's reservation only, so you never feel like you're in a mob. And the curators are top-notch, so you're guaranteed to see something interesting no matter when you come. They produce good catalogs for each show so there's always a chance to learn something new about the artists and their work. Finally, the location is great - right on the waterfront. You can easily find a great place for lunch or dinner nearby.

I have known about Pier 24 Gallery almost since I moved here in 2010. I can't believe it's taken me this long to go. It's huge... way bigger than I had expected, and the show was excellent.

Excellent photography space, booking in advance is required, I did so on the day, space allows for contemplation and would allow an hour to view current collections. High quality documentary, portrait, photo journalism, filmic and a refreshing find to a while away a few hours under the bay bridge. Highly recommend

Beautiful Gallery! A pleasure to walk around the pristine space, deeply respectful of the art it displays. Each piece is given the space it needs for the viewer to intimately relate to it without the nagging distraction of a descriptive tag, without the clutter of too many of people fighting to view it.

Beautiful

Excellent space to enjoy curated collections of photography. Guidebooks are provided so that information about each photograph doesn't detract from the aesthetic experience. Negatives: collections change infrequently, and the gallery is only open during regular working hours.

Decent experience. They had a lot of photos of Vancouver from back in the day, which I found quite interesting, considering we were in San Francisco. Had to wear a mask for some reason. I guess they still think it's 2020.

Absolutely the best. Free, not crowded, beautiful presentation. Admittance via reservations through their website.

Super space, excellent photography and wonderfully knowledgeable attendants.

Best photography gallery. Hidden, completely quiet environment.

Great, really great, exhibition. Pier 24 is worth a trip to San Francisco alone.
