Given Sacramento’s extreme summer temperatures, shade is essential to maintaining docked boats. This is why the marina needed covered docks.
Sacramento City Marina is a municipal marina, comprised of north and south basins. The marina serves a vibrant boating region that includes the Delta and recreational waterways from San Francisco Bay north to a thousand miles of accessible waterways.
The two basins are cut into the shoreline by a channel. Between the river and the marina is a tranquil park that enhances the environment of the marina.
