Sacramento River — Attraction in Chico

I have always lived near the water specifically the ocean until 2015, and at first it did not seem similar. But now that I've lived 2 blocks from the the water once again, Ive realized that except for surfing and scuba diving it offers the same fulfillment as the ocean, plus you can drink the water, except the river is less buoyant. But water is water and that means there is life, both game and sports and people. Albeit there are some small differences. Ill just expound on the similarities, water skiing is much easier on a river, no chop or swells. Cooling off on a hot day with a quick dunk still requires one to take off your shoes and get your feet sandy, the temperature is roughly the same as you travel north in latitude, colder the farther north you go, so taking a plunge takes away one's breath. Sun bathing, with the added benefit of finding a secluded place to tan is easier at the rivers edge than the heavily populated coastline, having to traverse pacific coast highway and sneak between housing to access the water is a challenge if not hassle at the beach, were as hiking through dog island and doing the same is a nature walk not so much a mission or crusade. But once you find a spot to relax, it is both relaxing and well worth it. Fishing is fishing, only the way one collects and type of game is different, but both require a pole and baiting hooks and cleaning the game one harvests and a state license, or you find out how much you pay the government in fines to enjoy water life, and you have to register water craft you use larger than a surfboard on both. Just going to the river on a break and absorbing nature, both are very relaxing and serene. so one can find all the benefits of being with nature, again albeit small differences on all the waters around and within the state...

Sacramento River is always a beautiful place to visit I remember when I was a college student back is San Francisco City College Bookstore I'm San Francisco as a student I'm I'm particularly impressed with this one you know kind of disabled Asian guy he aunt was from Vietnam lump in excellent worker M&S families go to you know Sacramento River is a long long river starts up there from Reading ends up and Old Sacramento and Etc but they got excellent fish in there you don't always have to go mainstream you could pretty much find a place to pull over on the side you know camp for the weekend and you know back to this Vietnamese guy he's a Beautiful Day always has good food you know Cooks themselves and you always seem to catch like the perfect Sturgeon or someone in the family does you know every month and they have fish all month long but you leave friends and you know you kind of need people to kind of you know guard to fishing poles 24/7 and you know they do a good Friday night all day Saturday and come home after 2 Sunday rush but all along you know up and down Sacramento the rivers is beautiful it really doesn't matter where along the river but I get five star no matter where you're out along the Sacramento River and there's always fishing canoe and boating you know there are parts of the river specially enough Sacramento County part you know perfect for women children whatever your needs are if you go like more up towards Redding you could even have outstanding fishing which include salmon you know Hammerheads on you know most people that I know the roster to sturgeons and did you catch them with the you know regulations so five star...

Wow, this is such a beautiful place, and the little park is pretty darn cool as well.

There is a HUGE marine region up here called the Delta, I highly recommend getting a boat tour to properly see something beautiful before it goes away during the next CONDO building madness.

Sacramento is a beautiful town, and is so perfectly located along US 50, US 99, I-5, and I-80. You can go anywhere from here, or "anywhere" can bring you here.

The Sac river parks and marinas all have fairly easy access and usually have available parking during non-rush hour periods like any other tourist location.

If you're really into the Riverboat tour scene, you can go upstream quite a bit through the long and amazing dyke system, which takes a few hours and is like a back in time experience!

Come and enjoy the beautiful...
