King tide that shows San Francisco’s future | 4K HDR City walk

Every year, King Tides flood parts of San Francisco and the Bay Area, offering a glimpse of what future sea levels might look like. In December 2025, we explored some of the Embarcadero’s lowest spots that are regularly submerged during these tides – around the Ferry Building and near Pier 5. In this video, you can join us on that walk.

As a bonus, at the end of the video you’ll see Alioto’s, the iconic restaurant now in the process of being demolished. It’s a chance to capture one last piece of San Francisco’s disappearing history – perhaps for the very last time.
