This information is intended to help guide the planning process for the Paradise Beach Park Master Plan that is currently being prepared for Marin County Parks and will also be used in the environmental analysis for the Master Plan pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Based on our review of existing information available for the park, as well as preliminary Master Plan design input, this assessment also identifies the potential need for additional technical studies and surveys that may be required in order to implement the Master Plan. Existing Conditions of Project Area Paradise Beach County Park is a 19-acre regional park located on the side of the Tiburon peninsula adjacent to the San Francisco Bay (Figure 1, Project Site Location Map). Having spectacular views of the Bay and with direct water access, the park is a popular destination for Marin County residents. The existing park features include a fishing pier, walking/hiking/jogging paths, outdoor teaching and environmental interpretation settings, wildlife viewpoints, sites for group events, various group picnic areas, informal lawn areas, a kayak launch, horseshoe court, modern restroom facilities, and a small beach with public access (Figure 2, Aerial of the Project Site).
