Overlook Park in Benicia is aptly named as you can see from the pictures. This is one of many parks scattered among Benicia neighborhoods. Overlook has meandering paths with benches to sit and ponder life. There is plenty of grassy areas for playing tag or ball or soccer. One is only limited by their creativity for an outdoor adventure.
Overlook Park overlooks the Carquinez Straits, the major water way to Central California. Huge tankers chug their way to bring goods to Sacramento and Stockton. Tall fragrant eucalyptus trees frame the view and picnic tables are ready for food or games. There is a play structure to burn the energy of young ones while adults can sit and meditate amongst the trees and views.
Overlook park is located in a neighborhood of homes built in the Southampton Hills in the late 70s and 80s. Take East Second Street, turn on Seaview and follow Seaview all the way to the top. Park is on the left.
