Rio Vista

The terrain around Rio Vista is a low-lying tidal delta of channels, marshes and cultivated islands, which has shaped both the town’s layout and its links to farming, boating and river transport. Set on the Sacramento River in the northern Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta, the city is a practical stop on State Route 12 between the Bay Area and inland California. The Rio Vista Bridge, officially the Helen Madere Memorial Bridge, is a vertical-lift crossing over the river and a defining part of the waterfront. Sport fishing is central to local identity, celebrated annually through the Rio Vista Bass Derby and Festival.
