For those who love the great outdoors, Alameda is home to several scenic parks and and the warmest and most swimmable beaches in the Bay Area.
Alameda's beaches are perfect for kids - the water is shallow, calm, and refreshingly warm. We make our beach gear available for our guests.
Kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, kite boarding, and windsurfing are all popular activities in our waters.
The closest beach is just 3 minutes away! Or bike there in less than 5 minutes or stroll there in 15 minutes, both wonderful options on those hot summer days when our beaches draw crowds from all over the Bay Area.
