ANTIOCH CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

The Delta is a wonderful place to escape the fast pace of daily life. You can camp by the water in your tent or RV, swim, ski or float down the river on houseboats. Fishing is a major draw to the Delta. The waters in the Antioch area are some of the prime striped bass and sturgeon fishing waters. As the "Gateway to the Delta", Antioch will continue as a refuge for boaters.

Antioch is a growing community located in Contra Costa County, and has the gift of being the "Gateway to the Delta", the point where the Sacramento and the San Joaquin Rivers come together and continue on to the Pacific Ocean.

Antioch has always been a city of homes and families. It’s downtown is filled with examples of Victorian, Spanish and early American architecture. Today, traditional single family homes compete for buyers with condominiums, townhomes and planned communities. Antioch has something for everyone.
