Online Highways Home > California > Robert W. Crown Memorial State Beach This state beach was named in memory of State Assemblyman Robert W. Crown, who campaigned for the site's preservation as public parkland. The park features 2.5 miles of beach, bordered by lawns and picnic grounds, with a bicycle trail. The water atthe beach is usually warm and swimming is permitted year round, although there are no lifeguards. A bath house is available with changing rooms. Nearby are picnic tables, barbecue pits, and a lawn area, popular for baseball games. The beach attracts windsurfers and sailboaters. Sailboats are available for rent and lessons are available during the summer on weekends. At the east end of the park is the Elsie Roemer Bird Sanctuary and at the north end is Crab Cove marine reserve. The park is located in the city of Alameda with the visitor center on McKay Avenue. Alameda is on an island in San Francisco Bay just offshore from Oakland. Telephone 510-635-0135 See more California State Parks. Other upcoming events include:
