About Oakland
Oakland, known locally as "The Town," is a vibrant, diverse city on the east shore of San Francisco Bay. Home to one of the busiest ports in the United States, Oakland combines industrial strength with cultural richness and natural beauty. With its thriving arts scene, historic architecture, and revitalized neighborhoods, Oakland offers a unique urban experience distinct from neighboring San Francisco. From the bustling waterfront at Jack London Square to the serene shores of Lake Merritt, from the redwood forests in the hills to the innovative restaurants downtown, Oakland presents a multifaceted destination for business and leisure travelers alike.
