Ayala Cove offers the largest public docking and mooring facilities on San Francisco Bay with 16 day-use boat slips ($15/day) and 27 mooring buoys ($30/night), making it an ideal protected anchorage for private vessels.

The cove provides easy access to Angel Island State Park amenities including restrooms, a visitor center, seasonal café, and bike rentals, with ferry service available from Tiburon and San Francisco for those without private boats.

Note that some dock slips remain closed for repairs scheduled through November 2025, so call ahead at (415) 435-5390 to confirm availability.
