To take a tour of the Historic Bob Hope Theatre is to travel back to experience one of Stockton's most iconic sites. Originally opened in 1930 as the Fox, the venue attracted quite a lot of attention (as well as patrons) for staging some of the most spectacular productions ever seen. The theater was also noted for its 2,170-seat capacity. The theater was renovated in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The three Wurlitzer pipe organs are still located in the loft, and one is used to regale audiences every second Friday of the month before a showing of a classic film. Tours of this incredible building are available by appointment.

Striking out is a good thing when the whole family heads out to Pacific Avenue Bowl. This is one of Stockton's favorite places for great family fun. This bowling facility has been one of the city's most iconic attractions, as it has had its doors (and bowling lanes) open since 1958. Despite its impressive vintage, the venue offers state-of-the-art bowling, a great gaming area, snack bar and more that creates a highly comfortable environment that's safe, enjoyable and perfect for the whole family.

Aquatic bliss awaits you at the Village West Marina. Located by land just two miles west of Interstate 5 on Benjamin Holt Drive, this highly appealing combination of nature and commerce offers plenty to do in Stockton. Located on Fourteenmile Slough, experience everything from fine dining to great shopping the very high-end Village West Yacht Club. Boat owners will appreciate the gas and guest docks as well as the boat detailing facility. And, to be sure, everyone looks forward to days spent outdoors and the panoramic sunsets every evening.
