Alcatraz Island - All questions

Address: San Francisco, CA 94133, USA

Alcatraz hasn't been a prison since 1963 (a decision driven by cost cuts in the prison system and a move to reform convicts rather than lock them away forever). It's now a national park and popular tourist attraction. The tickets go quickly, so book ahead to avoid missing out.

No. It is a top tourist attraction. Buy your tickets early if you plan to go. It books up fast.
