    1 San Francisco Bay Area Water Trail Site Description for Estuary Park/Jack London Aquatic Center Location, Ownership, and Management: The Jack London Aquatic Center (JLAC) is located within Estuary Park, along the Oakland Estuary. JLAC is owned by the Port of Oakland and leased to the City of Oakland and managed by Oakland Parks, Recreation, and Youth Development. Contact Name: Herbelin, Sarah, Boating Recreation Supervisor Contact Phone: (510) 238-2196 Contact E-mail: [email protected] Large low-freeboard dock High-freeboard dock & ramp Club boat storage Facility Description: Estuary Park / Jack London Aquatic Center boating facilities include two primary launches: 1) A large low-freeboard dock connected to a wide ADA gangway; and, 2) A boat launch ramp with boarding pier to a high-freeboard dock. The low-freeboard dock is very popular with non-motorized small boat users and is used both by clubs and by the City of Oakland’s recreation programs. Estuary Park is a 7-acre park located along the Oakland shoreline at the mouth of the channel connecting to Lake Merritt. It features the Aquatic Center, picnic areas, benches, and walking paths. The Aquatic Center provides boat and equipment storage for several rowing clubs and the City’s boating programs. The Aquatic Center building also serves as a community center, which is available to rent for special events. The Oakland Estuary is generally calmer and more protected than the open Bay, making it a good location for different types of boating programs. However, boaters need to be familiar with navigational safety techniques and how to boat near other vessels.
