San Leandro Oyster Beds, Historical oyster cultivation site in San Leandro Marina, United States.

The San Leandro Oyster Beds extend along Mulford Point Drive, featuring remnants of the original canal system used for oyster farming.

Moses Wicks initiated the California oyster industry by transporting seed oysters around Cape Horn to establish the San Leandro beds in the late 1800s.

The location includes a curved mosaic mural depicting the methods of oyster harvesting from the early 1900s at the San Leandro Marina.

Visitors can access the California Historical Landmark site at the southern end of North Dike Road in the San Leandro Marina area.

The oyster beds faced regular raids from oyster pirates, including the future American author Jack London, during their active period.
