Plan your trip to Berkeley, CA

Berkeley, in San Francisco Bay Area’s East Bay, is a city perfect for college students and families alike. Both a quintessential Californian and undeniably international city, Berkeley offers outdoor space, golfing, sports fishing, architectural tours and a liberal community that welcomes new ideas and experiences.

The town of Berkeley grew around the University of California, Berkeley, the oldest college in the school system and alma mater of author Jack London. A major site of activism during the 1960s, Berkeley maintains its atmosphere of political openness and expression.

Walk the paths of hippies and student demonstrators along Telegraph Avenue; take advantage of bicycle boulevards that cater to two-wheeled riders along hilly streets; visit Aquatic Park or pick up unique goods at South Berkeley’s flea market.
