Since its founding, Stockton been a waterfront community. Leading into downtown Stockton is the deep-water Stockton Channel, home to a thriving port that transports goods from the heart of Stockton directly to the Pacific Ocean.

The Downtown Stockton Marina, host to summer time events and kayak rentals, also features wonderful waterfront dining and a splendid walking promenade. If you have a boat, you’ll find many places in Stockton to launch your boat or just tie up for a while. Visit one of Stockton’s many marinas and enjoy great food and entertainment.
TIP: Downtown you can boat to a ball game or an event at the arena or even take in a downtown festival.
