Benicia State Recreation Area, State recreation area in Solano County, California.
The park encompasses natural marshlands, grassy slopes, and rocky shores along the Carquinez Strait, offering 2.5 miles of paths for outdoor activities.
Native American tribes inhabited this region before European settlement, later transforming from industrial land into a designated state recreation area.
The recreation area functions as an educational site where visitors learn about local ecosystems through guided programs and nature observation.
Visitors can access the park daily from 8 AM until sunset, with parking fees required and facilities including restrooms and designated picnic zones.
Three specialized overnight camping spots accommodate only self-contained motorhomes and trailers, excluding tent camping options for environmental protection.
