Crown Memorial State Beach, State beach in Alameda, US.
The 2.5-mile sandy shoreline stretches along San Francisco Bay, featuring coastal dunes and a bicycle trail that follows the waterfront edge.
The location housed Neptune Beach amusement park from 1880s until 1941, when it transformed into a training facility for Merchant Marine commanders.
