About This Walk
Come join us as I lead my 12th Worldwide Photowalk, this time of Port Costa, a small town on the southern shore of the Carquinez Strait.
Port Costa was settled in 1879. It was a massive grain port with two major sister railroad ferries, the Solano and the Contra Costa. As connectors to the Central Pacific Railroad, the ferries were the largest of their kind at the time, transporting dozens of train cars across the strait on any given day up until 1930, when the ferries were decommissioned.
The town was home to as many as 3,000 people at “the peak of the grain season,” Now, fewer than 200 people reside in Port Costa, despite sitting just an hour away from San Francisco and Oakland, and even closer to the sprawling suburbia in Contra Costa and Solano counties.
After the walk, join us for an optional dinner at The Warehouse Café, known for its ambiance and food. CASH ONLY!
