Point Isabel Regional Shoreline

Point Isabel Regional Shoreline, Regional park in Richmond, United States

Point Isabel Regional Shoreline is a waterfront park in Richmond with direct access to the San Francisco Bay and multiple trails for walking and enjoying the shore. The site features open areas and pathways that let visitors move easily throughout the grounds.

The site was acquired by the East Bay Regional Park District in 1975 from the United States Postal Service, which leased it back free of charge as mitigation for an adjacent bulk mail facility. Originally 23 acres, it gained 20 more acres across the Hoffman Channel in 2002 with the creation of McLaughlin Eastshore State Park. The land is landfill: North Point Isabel was a dumping ground for industrial waste in the 1950s and 1960s, earning the name Battery Point from buried battery casings. A 14-month cleanup began in 1985.

The park's name comes from the point of land itself, and its dog culture is organised: Point Isabel Dog Owners and Friends (PIDO), a longtime nonprofit, helps maintain and improve the grounds. A concession at the park sells food for people and offers pet grooming, so visitors can wash a muddy dog before the drive home.

The park is reached from the Rydin Road and Isabel Street ends, with permanent restrooms at both. Bikes may not be ridden inside the park, though the San Francisco Bay Trail passes nearby. A footbridge crosses the Hoffman Channel to North Point Isabel, and a concrete ramp serves kayaks and windsurfers at the water's edge.

North Point Isabel, reached by a short footbridge across the Hoffman Channel, was a dumping ground for industrial waste in the 1950s and 1960s and earned the name Battery Point from the battery casings buried there. A 14-month cleanup began in 1985, capping the landfill and adding rocks against shoreline erosion.
