Lake Merritt Boating Center is a beautiful venue with a lovely location, perfect for special events. The center offers boat rentals, including sailboats and kayaks, and has public docks for launching personal watercraft. The lake is connected to the bay and impacted by tides. The boating center provides an affordable way to experience sailing, with frequent sailor cards available. The staff is lovely, and the equipment is well-maintained, despite some being a bit old. The center is a hidden gem in the middle of the city, offering a peaceful escape from the urban environment.
