Benicia State Recreation Area covers marsh, grassy hillsides and rocky beaches along the narrowest portion of the Carquinez Strait.

Cyclists, runners, walkers, equestrians, and roller skaters enjoy the park?s 2 ? miles of road and bike paths. Picnicking, bird watching and fishing are also attractions. Dogs must be on a leash at all times.

The marshland area on Dillon?s Point is a particularly favorite place for fishing. A parking fee is required. The park is open from 8 a.m. to sunset daily.

Three "Enroute" campsites are available for an overnight stay on a "first-come, first-served" basis with no reservations possible. This camping is limited to motorhomes or vehicles with trailers, which must be fully self-contained. Tents are not permitted.
