The Alcatraz prison is no longer in use, and it was not impossible to escape the prison. Several attempts were made, with 3 escapees having dissapeared, and believed to have succesfully escaped, but it was never proven that they have (which means there's a possiblity they died in their escape attempts but the bodies were never recovered) if you want to read more into that, I suggest you visit the wikipedia page, they have broad information about it, and National Geographic Channel made a documentary about it.
Another escape made it to the mainland in Fort Point where he was found by teenagers, suffering from hypothermia, and obviously brought back to prison. This is the only 'proven" case of an Alcatraz prisoner reaching the shore by swimming.
There is no prison that is truly impossible to escape from, as history has shown various escape attempts and successful breakouts from even the most secure facilities. However, prisons with advanced security measures such as Guantanamo Bay or ADX Florence in the USA are known for their high level of security and strict protocols designed to prevent escapes.
It was considered escape proof because it was in the middle of the San Francisco bay. It was thought that if anyone did escape the prison, it would be impossible to swim all the way to the mainland. The only two prisoners to actually get off the island are claimed to have drowned.
