Travel Information
By Air

San Francisco International Airport and Oakland International Airport are conveniently located along Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) routes. These airports offer easy access to downtown Berkeley, and other cities throughout the Bay Area.

Lodging

Stay in downtown Berkeley, and catch the UC Berkeley Shuttle Service to the Richmond Field Station. Hotel Shattuck Plaza and the Bancroft Hotel are close to campus, BART, and Berkeley's famous restaurants.

If you prefer the waterfront and will have access to a car, we recommend DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel at the Berkeley Marina.
