Point Isabel Open During COVID-19 Stay-Home Order
Point Isabel will remain open during the new COVID-19 stay-at-home order. The East Bay Regional Park District closures that go into effect Dec. 6 apply mostly to campgrounds and a few specialized facilities. Please wear a mask, stay 6 feet apart on trails, and treat the bridge between Point Isabel and North Point Isabel as one-way-at-a-time. (It would be helpful to stand back from the bridge entrance while waiting for others to finish crossing.) Check directly with Mudpuppy’s on its schedule and availability: 888-505-2998 or mudpuppys.com.
