Welcome to Richmond

Thirty-two miles of shoreline and a San Francisco Bay experience!

Richmond is the perfect location to “play in the Bay” — water sports, museums, historic Point Richmond, two unique islands, live theatre, excellent shopping, attractive hotels, diverse dining, our very own National Historical Park, and much more.

Stay in Richmond and visit the entire Bay Area including San Francisco, the Wine Country and Sausalito and Muir Woods, all without packing and unpacking.

Visit historic Point Richmond with Channel 5's "Eye on the Bay".

Without leaving Richmond you can...

• Visit the Red Oak Victory Ship, an example of the industrial muscle that helped win WWII right here at home.

• Examine the first Model A to roll off the assembly line of Ford's Richmond plant, at the Richmond Museum of History. While you're there, check out the largest collection of auto repair manuals west of the Mississippi. (OK, your car isn't in need of repair? Then go...)

• Bring your best friend, Fido, to the #1 dog park in North America - our very own Pt. Isabel Dog Park!

  Rated by PETA, Pt. Isabel has something for everyone in the family. Dogs love sprinting across the park's fields and trails, rolling in the mud, and swimming in the San Francisco Bay, while their human companions enjoy soaking up the breathtaking vista of the Golden Gate Bridge arching over the water. At the end of the outing, you can scrub down your dirty hound at Mudpuppy's Tub & Scrub, a self-service dog wash, and enjoy a cup of delicious vegetarian soup at Mudpuppy's Sit and Stay Café.
