Ride the ferry from San Francisco to this waterfront Oakland hub, where you can watch trains roll by, explore murals and public art, or settle in for seafood with views of the Estuary. The square honors its literary namesake: Jack London haunted these docks as a kid, and his favorite saloon still stands.
