Point Pinole Regional Shoreline

Point Pinole in Richmond, designated as a state historic landmark, offers a variety of scenic trails leading through marshlands, eucalyptus woods, and beaches on San Pablo Bay. Along the bay trails are spectacular views of Mt. Tamalpais and the Marin shoreline. The climate at Point Pinole is influenced by breezes and fog from the bay and offers a cool alternative to the hot inland weather. The park includes several picnic areas, a fishing pier, a group campsite, a climbing structure for children, a volleyball area, and a horseshoe pit. The group campsite located south of the pier is a sheltered, cozy site that includes basic amenities such as water, cooking grills, storage for gear, and restrooms nearby. A shade structure provides coverage for the picnic area.
