There’s no shortage of things to do here. Explore the trails at Mount Diablo, grab dinner in downtown Walnut Creek, catch a show in Orinda, or spend a day on the water in Martinez.

The cities in Contra Costa County include Walnut Creek, Concord, Danville, San Ramon, Lafayette, Brentwood, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, Pittsburg, Antioch, El Cerrito, Hercules, Moraga, Oakley, Pinole, and Clayton.

Each area has its own draw. Walnut Creek is popular for its shopping, dining, and arts scene.
