Trip
Description: Join Outback
Adventures for a bay paddle to historic Red Rock Island.
Surrounded by some of the deepest water in the North
Bay, 60 feet, this Island has the distinction of being
the only privately owned island in the San Francisco
Bay. Acutally located in three different counties, this
5 ½ acre landmark of the San Francisco Bay has
quite a history. Did pirates bury treasure here? How
are three different U.S presidents connected to its history?
Find out as we paddle out and around the island from
Point Richmond.
