After you take a left or right on Ballena Blvd, you will cross a small bridge and drive on to Ballena Isles - which is a small island off of Alameda Island. On your right will be fantastic city views and the Alameda Rock Wall. On the left are office buildings that are part of the Ballena Isle Marina. Keep driving past the first parking lot in front of Pier 29 restaurant. After you pass Abigails Cafe, there’s a second parking lot, you will park there. If you go past the round-about with the American Flag pole you’ve gone too far.
You can park in the parking lot closer to water. You’ll see docks and paddle boards on the water. After getting out of your car, walk towards the building 1120 Ballena Blvd which is right on the water, the shop is in the building.
