Alameda is located in San Francisco Bay Area's East Bay next to Oakland and the Oakland Airport. Situated on a small island, it features a charming look and feel with Victorian homes and tree-lined streets not far from a variety of great hotels. For nightlife, check out the Alameda Civic Light Opera (aclo.com) or Altarena Playhouse (altarena.org). One museum or web site we are always receiving information about is the USS Hornet Foundation Museum. This organization and its historic military ship keep an active calendar of events, drawing tourists from all over. In addition, Alameda has an historic museum and many parks and recreation opportunities for all ages.

One of Alameda's great assets is its ferry system connecting tourists with Oakland and San Francisco. Daily ferry service operates from Alameda, connecting with Pier 41 or the San Francisco Ferry Building in the heart of the action. USS Hornet located at Pier 3 at Alameda Point, makes for a unique and interesting tour. Open daily, this legend of Naval history features many special events as well as ongoing exhibits on board the ship.
