What a perfect spot to see the Bay Area. Centrally located in East Bay. Views of San Francisco, The Bay Bridge, The Golden Gate Bridge, and the Marin Headlands. Fantastic. Go park here and take a long walk along the Bay.
I came to visit my cousins, but the teacher in me can't stop. I took the preteens to the marina to take pictures of them at sunset. They were describing the sunset to me as I was shooting them, but using simple words like "cool," "pretty," and "nice." I told them those all described it, but I wanted them to use different adjectives to describe the sunset. We each took turns. I started out with "This sunset is magnificent" I eventually got then to use words such as inspiring, calming, goregous, spectacular, etc. They loved it and so did I.
What a great way to spend an afternoon, especially if it's a sunny day and it's free. People were walking, fishing, running, dancing, painting, taking pictures, and yes, texting. Secret... go in the afternoon and when the tied is up.
From the dog park (clean, huge, friendly (dogs and people) and easy, plentiful parking to the motel (dog friendly) to restraunts or fast food nearby this is THE PLACE to spend a day. We watched ocean going ships navigate under the bridges, sail boats, windsurfers, ground squirrels and pelicans dine. (They are NOT graceful just before hitting the water they splay out their feet) which however did not stop the one we watched from catching the fish he went after!There's a small bait and crab preparing spot on your way out to the pier. Parking has always been easy with places available. That's really neat when you think of the rest of the bay area.Don't forget your kite...or buy one there...I can't wait to go back.
Cezar Chavez is a great park for many people. I go with my dogs as there is an off leash area. You often see family groups and people flying kites and are right on the SF Bay
The Berkeley Marina is surrounded by Parkland on 3 sides and San Francisco Bay to the west.It's a great place to spend a day walking, sunbathing, or having a picnic. There are buses from downtown Berkeley. The views of San Francisco, Marin, the Bay, and the East Bay Hills aresimply fabulous. It's a wonderful place to watch the Sun and Moon rise and set
很漂亮,从Berkeley校园步行过去大约1个小时。面积很规整,一个长方形。后来看了下介绍,果然是用垃圾填出来的,怪不得那么规整。海鸟很多。风筝活动在这里办
a great place too hang out to have brunch and long walks and if you have the right boat! great for cruising the bay.
What a beautiful spot to enjoy the view of the city across the bay. Quiet and charming. The sunset alone was worth the trip.
The walking paths are delicately manicured in some places. There are separate dog parks as well. Bring a cup of coffee and enjoy a quiet walk along the bay or sit on one of the benches. Enjoy a brisk walk/run/jog as well.
