Pittsburg Marina

The Pittsburg Marina, situated at the confluence of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, stands as a testament to the rich industrial and maritime history of Pittsburg, California. With 575 berths, including 274 covered slips, this marina serves as the Gateway to the Delta, offering effortless access to the upper delta region and the San Francisco Bay. Its strategic location provides boaters a quick escape to open water and a safe haven from the delta winds and rough waters.

Historically, the marina was a hub for the local fishing, canning, and packing industries that flourished from the 1860s to 1957. Boat builders crafted ships, ferries, and dredgers, while establishments like the Sacramento River Packers and Black Diamond Cannery were cornerstone institutions. The marina’s revitalization, marked by the George Lowy Marina Dock Replacement Project in 2006, has restored its vitality, blending past significance with modern amenities. Today, it remains a vibrant and essential part of Pittsburg’s waterfront, offering a blend of historical charm and contemporary convenience.
