  • Alameda CA

    Alameda CaliforniaAlameda is a California town in Alameda County. Founded in 1853, this charter city is home to 78,522 residents. It borders Oakland and the San Francisco Bay and spans across several minor islands, including Bay Farm Island and Alameda Island. Typical for the area, Alameda experiences warm summers and cool, wet winters – otherwise known as a warm Mediterranean climate. Downtown Alameda, with its one-of-a-kind shops and restaurants, is a popular island attraction in the San Francisco Bay Area.

    Much of Alameda’s fame comes from its place in history. In September of 1869, the first Transcontinental Railroad reached the site of the Alameda Terminal, thus being the first coast to coast transcontinental railroad in North America. Remnants of history are still in place all over town, preserving its small-town feel even in the midst of San Francisco. A 4-mile loop displays the East Bay’s prized collection of Victorian architecture, from mansions with towers to small bungalows.

    For tourists, visitors, and residents of Alameda alike, the town offers plenty of sightseeing and attractions. A popular destination for families is the Crab Cove Visitor Center, which features an 800-gallon aquarium system along with regional hikes, biking, horseback riding, and swimming. For a history-focused visit, try the USS Hornet Museum, a tribute to the USS Hornet which was in active duty for three decades during WWII, the Vietnam War, and the Cold War. It features over a hundred restored spaces and exhibits for a full immersion learning experience. If you’re looking to sit back and relax, Alameda features tons of unique distilleries, breweries, and restaurants.

    It’s no wonder that Alameda attracts over 100,000 visitors per year. With the city’s historical charm and modern amenities, Alameda California is a city you simply can’t miss.
