Marina Bay Park — Attraction in Richmond

This is my most frequently visited park as I live very close by - and it's my primary bicycle access to the San Francisco Bay Trail.

For some reason, Google Maps shows the parking area not as pavement, but as park, until you turn on Earth View - so I encourage you to do so right now!
