North Course
Corica Park Golf Club

About this course
The North Course at Corica Park Golf Club occupies a distinctive setting on the former Naval Air Station Alameda, situated on a flat peninsula in San Francisco Bay. The facility, originally developed as a municipal golf complex in the 1960s, underwent significant renovation and redesign by Marc Logan, transforming it into a modern public golf destination. The course takes advantage of its bayside location, with views across the water toward San Francisco and the surrounding East Bay hills, though the terrain itself remains characteristically level throughout. Logan's design work emphasizes strategic bunkering and green complexes that add challenge to what might otherwise be a straightforward layout given the minimal elevation change. The routing makes efficient use of the available land, with holes playing in varying wind conditions depending on their orientation to the prevailing bay breezes. Water features and native grasses frame several holes, while mature trees from the original layout provide definition and character on others. As part of the broader Corica Park complex, the North Course serves a diverse golfing population in the East Bay, offering an accessible public option in a region where private clubs dominate the upper tier of golf facilities. The course operates within the larger context of Alameda's recreational infrastructure, maintaining its role as a municipal amenity while incorporating design elements that elevate the playing experience beyond basic public golf standards.

Getting there
Most travelers arrive via Oakland International Airport, just ten minutes across the bay, though San Francisco International lies only half an hour southwest for those connecting from farther afield. Private arrivals often touch down at Oakland's general aviation terminal, a discreet gateway to the East Bay. The drive to Corica Park Golf Club traces the eastern shoreline, slipping off Interstate 880 onto the island city of Alameda, where the course reveals itself along a dramatic stretch of reclaimed bayfront - San Francisco's skyline shimmering across the water as you pull into the grounds.
