Someone ought to know more than I do, but I have the impression that
the tide level at Crissy is immaterial. The beach slopes in steeply
and I doubt there is ever any obstacle. On the other hand it's really
useful to know when it floods and when it ebbs.

Berkeley is sailable with the lowest tides, as long as you don't go
too close to the freeway.

Point Isabel is also pretty much always sailable. One must always pay
attention to the submerged rocks near the access point, no matter what
the tide level is. Also, the water can get pretty shallow near the
opposite shore---the new housing development in Richmond.
