Introduction
About Alameda, California

Alameda, California is a man-made island in the middle of San Francisco Bay. Originally a peninsula off of Oakland, it was “created” in the early 20th century after the digging of a tidal canal.  This made Alameda an important port city. Many methods of transportation such as bridges, tunnels and ferries give easy access to the Californian mainland.

Alameda, California, is a unique city with amazing views of the San Francisco skyline and the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge.  This residential city has a small town feel and has beautiful beaches, a variety of housing options, and parks for everyone to enjoy.
