Attractions
This ain’t no theme park. This here is the real deal. Registered as a national historic landmark, The Waterfront overflows with invigorating things to see and do. Wild museums, riverboat rides, historic railroads excursions, horse carriage, and cobblestone…it’s one non-stop adventure after another just waiting to unfold.
Entertainment
From boat cruises to gold tours, to a mini golf adventure and train rides, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Come explore!
Shopping
Discover a wild collection of unusual, locally-owned shops revealing truly novel gifts, one-of-a-kind collectibles, and of course, more than enough upscale accessories and apparel for the hard-to-please. When asked, “Where in the world did you find that?” The answer, on the Waterfront, of course.
California Native Plant Walk
We have partnered with the California Native Plant Society to help us beautify the Old Sacramento Waterfront District, and would like you to take part in this fun and interactive journey.
