Berkeley Marina

Recreation along the waterfront

The Berkeley Marina is the westernmost portion of the city of Berkeley, located west of Interstates 80 and 580, at the foot of University Avenue on San Francisco Bay. Narrowly speaking, “Berkeley Marina” refers only to the city marina, but in common usage, it applies more generally to the surrounding area.

There are several restaurants, a hotel, and a yacht club in the Berkeley Marina. There are also several walking and bicycle paths. The area is accessible from the rest of Berkeley by foot or bike over the Berkeley I-80 Bridge at the foot of Addison Street, and is traversed near I-80 by a segment of the San Francisco Bay Trail. In addition, it is accessible by AC Transit.

The easternmost portion of the Marina, running parallel to I-80/580, is now a part of the McLaughlin Eastshore State Park.
