Alameda Considers Surf Park At Alameda Point

ALAMEDA, CA — The City of Alameda is exploring an ambitious new addition to its waterfront: a surf park. The Neptune Beach Surf Club has proposed constructing a Surf Pool at Alameda Point as part of a broader vision for Enterprise Park, a developing recreational area near Encinal Beach.

The proposed Surf Pool would create year-round, surfable waves for people of all ages and skill levels. According to city officials, the project is still in its conceptual stages, and public input will play a key role in shaping its future.

“This could be a signature attraction for the city, activating an underutilized part of our waterfront,” said a city spokesperson.

Enterprise Park—currently a working name—could also feature campgrounds, dining options, and other recreation facilities. The area is located between the Encinal Boat Ramp and the USS Hornet and is envisioned as a vibrant aquatic hub.

To engage the public, the Neptune Beach Surf Club will host a pop-up community meeting on Saturday, May 17, from 10 a.m. to noon at 150 W. Hornet Ave., at the intersection of West Hornet and Skyhawk Street.

Residents can also provide feedback through an online survey or by visiting the Neptune Beach Surf Club’s website.

The city hopes the proposed surf park will make waves—not just in the water, but across the community.
