With 260 days of sunshine, miles of waterfront access and over 100,000 acres of parks and trails, it's no wonder that Oakland is a playground to sports enthusiasts of all kinds. And you don’t have to travel far to find it—there’s a lake in the middle of the city, and a redwood forest less than 20 minutes from downtown. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself wondering out loud “am I still in Oakland”? The answer, of course, is yes. Get inspired by our parks and open spaces if you don't believe us.
More spectator than sporty? Oakland’s got you covered there, too. With a handful of sports teams in tow, there’s a lot to cheer about. Oakland fans are a lot like the city—proud, loud and loyal.
