The city of Alameda in Alameda County, CA was once known for being home to the popular tourist attraction Neptune Beach that had a ferris wheel, swimming pools, games at the beach, and more. Neptune Beach was where the American snow cone and popsicle were first sold. Neptune Beach was eventually shut down due to a loss of popularity as other areas in the Bay Area rgion became more popular. Now, Alameda is a destination for wind surfers and kite surfers, particularly at the Robert W. Crown Memorial State Beach. The city is a vibrant cultural area with lots to do.
Ballena Bay Yacht Harbor, a large small-craft harbor, is on the E side of an island along the S shore of Alameda. This harbor offers safe refuge in storms. A private light marks the entrance to the harbor. A depth of 9 to 10 feet is available in the channel between the island and Alameda. A fixed bridge, with a clearance of 5 feet, crosses the channel about midway along the N shore of the island.
