Description

Alcatraz is a legendary 22-acre rocky outcrop in San Francisco Bay, where history intertwines with dark legend. Once an impenetrable federal prison that housed Al Capone and 'Machine Gun' Kelly, today it fascinates with tales of impossible escapes across icy waters.

From the Spanish 'Isla Pelícana' to a fort with over 100 cannons to the 19-month occupation by Native Americans in 1969, every stone holds a secret. Graffiti from the Red Power movement still marks the walls.
