Alameda

Alameda, known as "The Island City," is located in the East Bay region and offers a unique island experience.

History and culture enthusiasts can visit the USS Hornet Museum, a State and National Historic Landmark, or explore the Alameda Museum's local historical collections. Parks like Shoreline Park provide picturesque waterfront views, while the Alameda Point Antiques Faire and local art galleries cater to a different kind of treasure hunt.

For a taste of the city's vibrant nightlife, head to Forbidden Island, a fun tiki bar, or Monkey King Pub & Grub, a popular Asian fusion spot. Fireside Lounge and Embarc Alameda offer additional options for a memorable evening.
