Black Point sits on the quiet eastern edge of Novato, where rolling hills meet tidal marsh and wide-water views. Residents prize the easy boating and kayaking access from the county’s Black Point Boat Launch, a gateway to the Petaluma River and San Pablo Bay. Just over the ridge from Bahia, the restored Hamilton Wetlands draw birders year-round, while quick connections via Highways 37 and 101 put you in San Rafael or Petaluma in minutes. Despite the serene, semi-rural feel, essentials and dining in historic downtown are surprisingly close. Outdoor days often end with golden-hour skies and egrets skating over the marsh.
Families are served by the Novato Unified School District, with neighborhood access to Hamilton School (K–8) and collegiate pathways at Novato High School. Weekends range from local fairways at Marin Country Club to picnics and disc golf at Stafford Lake Park. History and hiking combine a few exits north at Olompali State Historic Park, where oak-studded trails offer sweeping valley vistas across Marin County. Whether you’re looking for a quiet retreat with room for gardens and gear, or a launchpad for Bay, wine country, and city commutes, Black Point delivers a rare blend of breathing room and convenience.
