    Sea Lions at Pier 39

    Want to see sea lions in the wild? Come to Pier 39. They are always there. Watch out for the angry ones!
    The sea lions camped out in PIER 39’s West Marina have been endearingly coined The PIER’s “Sea Lebrities.” The boisterous pinnipeds started arriving in droves in January 1990, shortly after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. At first, they numbered from 10-50, but due to a plentiful herring supply, available dock space and the marina’s protected environment, the population grew to more than 300 within a few months.
    Each winter, the population can increase up to 900 sea lions, most of which are male. During the summer months, the sea lions migrate south to the Channel Islands for the breeding season, but in recent years a small group stays year-round at PIER 39’s K-Dock.

    Liholiho Yacht Club

    How about something truly special for the dinner? Back in Hawaii in the early 80's the Kealoha uncles would race Hobie Cats, and throw "pop up" parties to pay for their supplies. They would go to the beach, fire up the grill, ice down the beer, and get a band to play. They charged a modest price with the intention of making enough money to allow them to keep doing what they loved. They realized they needed a name for their 'organization', and the brothers — who lived on Liholiho street — decided to name it Liholiho Yacht Club. This is how the modern day LYC was born.
