Although the address for the B0y Model Visitors Center is on Bridgeway, the building itself is actually located off of Marinship Way, which splits off of Bridgeway just to the south and runs down a small hill to the nuilding. The satellite photo below shows the huge complex, and the map shows how Bridgeway and Marinship Way intersect. Once you've turned onto Marinship Way signs will lead you to parking for the Bay Model Visitor Center.
Price: Free
You can take part in a guided tour of the Bay Model, a 1.5-acre operating hydraulic model of the SF Bay and Delta. We've been reduced to watching 3D models on screen of everything in life to learn how it works. But at the Bay Model it's real water you're watching as the tides ebb and flood.
It's bigger than you think it could possibly be, and gives you a great feeloing for the water issues that face California.
Google Map Instructions: Use the "+" and "-" buttons to zoom in and out, the arrow keys to scroll the map, and the SAT button to see the satellite view.
