Tucked along the eastern shore of San Francisco Bay, Newark is a place whose character is shaped by the tidal wetlands and former salt ponds of the South Bay. Once an agricultural community on the bay’s eastern plain, Newark incorporated as a city in 1955 and is now part of the closely connected East Bay. Nearby, Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge protects salt marshes and mudflats used by migratory birds along the Pacific Flyway. To the south, the Dumbarton Bridge carries State Route 84 across the bay toward the Peninsula. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Newark and the San Francisco Bay Area.
