Three sandy beaches to choose from |
7806 Folsom Auburn Road Sacramento, CA 95630 United States +1 916 791 1531 http://www.geocities.com/place... |
A mere half-hour drive east of downtown Sacramento, this natural oasis is a great place to get away from all the hustle and bustle. The kids can go swimming in the warm waters of Folsom Lake under the watchful eyes of lifeguards, while you can relax in the sun on one of the three beaches. The picnic areas have barbecue pits, covered tables, and plenty of nearby restrooms. If you forgot to bring your picnic lunch, there is a snack bar offering a variety food items and drinks.

Aquatic adventures on Lake Natoma |

If you want to learn a water sport from pros, or just spend time enjoying a well-equipped urban recreation area, The Associated Students of CSUS have just the thing for you. The unruffled waters of the lake offer a perfect environment in which to learn the basics of canoeing, kayaking or water-skiing. If water sports are not for you, just spend an afternoon at the beach area, which boasts picnic tables and barbecue equipment. Canoes and kayaks can be rented for $8 an hour. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Unique river adventure for diners |

From Old Sacramento to marinas, restaurants and shops along the Sacramento River, River Otter Taxi Company—the sturdy 24-seat boat makes the placid round trip in about an hour and a quarter. Some of the notable destinations along the way include Chevy's, Crawdads and Woody's. Sacramento River Cats (minor league baseball) fans travel on the river taxi from convenient parking in downtown Sacramento to Raley Field on the West Bank of the Sacramento River.
