About Middle Harbor Shoreline Park
Middle Harbor Shoreline Park is situated along the Port of Oakland and San Francisco Bay entrance channel. It is located West of downtown Oakland in California. As mentioned earlier, what makes this venue such an ideal location for your group corporate picnics, annual outdoor parties, and other corporate events is its proximity to the shoreline. This park is a great San Francisco excursion spot, known for its birding and fishing opportunities.
Apart from your planned entertainment activities, your guests will be treated to the scenic view of the bay, the rich natural habitat and also the ever-bustling maritime activities at the harbor. It would interest you to know that the park was used as a base for the U.S Navy during the Second World War.
After extensive restoration work was done to the beaches of the park, it was reopened back in September of 2004. The restoration work also included the creation of a man-made lagoon.
About The Observation Tower And Amphitheatre
Guests of your corporate event can freely use the binoculars located in the observation tower as well as Pt. Arnold to have a great view of the bay. The observation tower at the park is called the Chappell R. Hayes Memorial Observation Tower and was so named in memory of the great leader of West Oakland. Using the binoculars at the tower you will be treated to a fantastic view of both the maritime activities at the port and the Oakland Estuary. There is an amphitheater at the park which is perfectly situated to give visitors a wonderful view of the San Francisco Bay area.
