China Camp State Park is located on the southwest shore of San Pablo Bay, just three miles from downtown San Rafael in Marin County. The park is easily reached by way of Highway 101 and is just a thirty-minute drive from San Francisco by way of the Golden Gate Bridge. Take the San Pablo exit and travel east until you hit the bay. The best place to start the loop is at the Campground Entrance. You can park your car on San Pedro Road outside the Campground Entrance. There is plenty of parking space.
