Ryer Island, Agricultural island in Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, California.
Ryer Island extends over 11,700 acres of land, bordered by Miner Slough and Steamboat Slough at their meeting point with the Sacramento River.
The land was divided by the west fork of the Sacramento River during California's statehood, with its western section labeled as Priest Island and eastern part as Sutter Island.
The name honors Dr. Washington M. Ryer and his family, who were among the early settlers contributing to California's development in the 1800s.
Two vehicle ferries, the Real McCoy II and J-Mack, provide transportation links to Rio Vista and Ryde Highway 220, operating every twenty minutes throughout the day.
The J-Mack Ferry completes a three-minute journey across Steamboat Slough, carrying up to six vehicles while functioning as an extension of the highway system.
