One of the most historic maritime vessels in the country, USS Pampanito is stationed at Fisherman Wharf, San Francisco. Its been restored to the exact condition it was in 1945 at the height of the Second World War, when it ran 6 patrols in the Pacific. The museum ship is operated by the San Francisco Maritime National Park Association. Its radio room is home to the USS Pampanito’s Amateur Radio Club. The ship also runs many onsite educational programs for kids and adults, as well as team-building for corporations.
The ship serves as a historic monument and a memorial to the many submariners who served the country during the Second World War. It has also been used as a set for multiple movies like ‘Down Periscope’. You can even spend the night in costume and character at the Hyde Street Pier and then the submarine.
