Sandbars reach far into the Bay here at this cove at low tide. They are easily accessible from the shore and provide access to the Bay waters. The rocky shoreline is revealed. At high tide, the Bay waters splash against the rocks protecting the shoreline at the edge of the trail. At 2.79 miles, the trail passes a point of land jutting into the Bay, topped by a small hill.
Paths lead up to the brush-covered hilltop.
At the top of the hill is a bench, provided by the city of San Leandro. This is a good spot for viewing the shoreline and the Bay. Just to the north, planes can be seen landing at the Oakland International Airport. Across the Bay are the Santa Cruz Mountains, the hills and skyline of San Francisco, and the Bay Bridge. To the south, the long, low San Mateo-Hayward Bridge crosses the Bay.
