Crown Memorial State Beach provides a scenic shoreline setting with generous day-use parking and picnic amenities, though it does not offer RV hookups. Crane Cove Park at Alameda Point features paved areas and waterfront views that are great for unloading toys and short-term staging from a toy hauler. Crab Cove Visitor Center offers interpretive exhibits, shoreline access, and convenient parking for day trips, making it a good spot to unhitch and explore. Because formal RV hookups are limited within Alameda city parks, plan overnight stays at nearby RV facilities if you need full hookups or pull-through sites.
