Visitors' Information 
Petaluma has an
Airport, a Marina and is positioned as the southern gateway to Sonoma County's wine country and to the Pacific Ocean coast. We have a distinctly charming downtown and many exciting events during the year.
The Petaluma Fairgrounds on Washington Street is site to many events over the year. The Petaluma Community Center also is a prime location for conferences, meetings and community or social events.
The Petaluma downtown is only walking distance from the docks in the turning basin where boaters frequently visit on weekends. As a visitor to Petaluma, you will want to visit shops downtown.
These web sites have even more information - Petaluma Yacht Club, The Petaluma Downtown Association (especially for Butter and Egg Days and our salute to American Graffiti) and the Petaluma Visitors' Center.
