    Ashby Spit Park is a small peninsula between Berkeley Marina and Pier and Waterfront Park.

    There is plenty of parking at Ashby Spit Park.

    The trail wraps around two coves. The beaches are great to sit and take in the view at.

    A woman sits on the beach and looks onward at Berkeley Marina and Pier.

    A father and son comb the park for worms so that they can fish later on in the day.

    The fog blankets the beach and the surrounding areas.

    The trail winds around the inlets.

    More of the trail.

    After the fog clears up, one can see across the bay clearly.

    The trail takes one down to the very tip of the peninsula, a great place to fish.

    More of the beach along the trail.

    Everyone can enjoy the park because everyone can park their car.

    The trail leads one across the peninsula and down to the very tip of the point.

    On a bright day, the ocean and the sky almost melt together.

    The waves role onto the beach, while a sailboat floats along in the distance.

    The newly constructed trail/bike path from the park takes you into downtown Emeryville.

    The skyline of the city gives the this tranquil setting a little urban flair.

    A man sits upon a bench. There are many benches around the trail that people can sit on and take in the view from.

    The sun shines brightly onto the water.
