Weekend staples include beach walks along Crown Memorial State Beach, paddleboarding and sailing on the estuary, biking the Cross Alameda Trail, and romps at Washington Park's dog area and Jean Sweeney Open Space. Shopping is easy at South Shore Center and Alameda Landing (with Safeway, Trader Joe's, Target), plus gyms like Bladium and boutique studios. The ferry, AC Transit, and nearby tubes make it commuter friendly.
