Novato sits along Novato Creek in northern Marin County, California, United States, where low hills descend toward the tidal margins of San Pablo Bay. Part of the North Bay, it stands on the road and rail corridor between San Francisco and Sonoma County, while its older centre retains a local scale. Grant Avenue forms the spine of downtown. The former Hamilton Field, a 20th-century military airfield, has been adapted for civilian use and includes the Marin Museum of Contemporary Art. Nearby open-space preserves extend into Marin’s oak-studded hills, and the baylands east of town contain tidal wetlands. See how Novato fits within northern Marin County by browsing webcams nearby.
