The California Delta is a fabulous network of rivers, tributaries and channels that creates over 1000 miles of navigable waterways. The three major rivers feeding the Delta are the San Joaquin, Sacramento and Mokelumne. Average Temperatures

Interesting Sights and Side Trips The infinite variety of the area must be experienced to be appreciated, from tree-lined banks festooned with wild berry vines, to sandy beaches, to isolated jungle-like isles. There are draw-bridges that open to allow boats - even boathouses - to pass through, and you can share the waters with ocean-going vessels, sailboats, a paddle boat or two, and an old Chinese junk. The historic towns of Walnut Grove and Locke are waiting to be explored. Locke was built and inhabited by the Chinese immigrants who built the levees that protect the Delta farmlands. Numerous waterfront resorts and restaurants are scattered along the banks. Sacramento's Old Towne and Stockton's Waterfront are two nearby attractions for visitors to the Delta. Old Towne is made up of several blocks of shops and restaurants that have been authentically renovated to create a turn-of-the-century environment. Although somewhat similar, the theme of The Waterfront is nautical rather than old western, and the ambiance of its many small shop and restaurants pleasingly reflects this nautical theme. Resort
