Take a look at some of the wind_talk archives. The location and directions
to Davis Point have been discussed in great detail.

The short of it is that Davis Point is in the town of Rodeo, a few miles
west of the Carquinez Bridge, at Lone Tree Park (or something like that).
In the summer, Davis Point usually works when Larkspur is going. On big ebb
days, the swells at Davis Point are arguably better than *anyplace* in the
bay - including 3rd Ave at it's best.

DP has bad points like fast tides (dont bother on a flood during summer),
seedy parking area, channel 1+ mile from the beach - again check the
archives.. but this place can really go off, and is probably the most
underused, undervalued, and underrated spot on the bay.

Where is Davis Pt. ? looked in the north bay (and south) at iwindsurf but
it
isn't listed.

It's been a long while since we had any kind of wind. Even storm winds...
nothing... been too long.
Hopefully Maui will blow in the 2 weeks I'll be there in january (not the
best
time to go there for wind, but it's work related - yeah really).
