Mallard Creek

Slip and slide into gallons of fun at Sacramento's Raging Waters. This water-soaked attraction has just the right size splash for everyone, from taking a tranquil float down the Calypso Cooler Lazy River to catapulting down a slide through nearly five stories of heart-pounding spirals into the depths of the abyss below. Rent cabanas, eat and shop and much more!

Step into Sacramento's nightlife at ultra-chic Mix Downtown. You'll find the best seat in the house is the swanky rooftop lounge with chairs and ottomans arranged in semicircles around blazing fire pits. Signature martinis and handcrafted cocktails flow and superstar DJs spin the hottest dance club sounds.

Harvest fresh farm produce and other locally grown finds at the Davis Farmers Market. This Sacramento treasure is filled with organic goodies, baked goods and good old fashioned outdoor market fun. Pick from fresh corn, apricots, peaches, tomatoes and more for a healthier, greener lifestyle.

Spend some time outdoors and enjoy a nature walk at Effie Yeaw Nature Center located where the Sacramento and American rivers meet. You'll want to bring your binoculars, camera or artist pad to capture the "watchable wildlife" in the area, including wild turkeys, wild birds, deer and snakes. You're sure to appreciate nature even more at this award-winning, 77-acre environmental and cultural education center.
