Alcatraz Island, located in California's Golden Gate National Recreation Area, has a fascinating and complex history. Once a fort, a military prison, and a maximum security federal penitentiary, it now serves as a reminder of American incarceration and justice. But it's not all doom and gloom! In 1969, the island was occupied by Indigenous activists for 19 months, fighting for Native American civil rights. Today, visitors can explore Alcatraz's rich past and soak in its natural beauty. So, whether you're a history buff or just looking for a unique adventure, Alcatraz Island is definitely worth a visit!
