Big Break Regional Shoreline is a park in Oakley, California, part of the East Bay Regional Park District. The park features an $11 million, 5,000-square-foot Delta Visitor Center, which operates as a natural history museum, science laboratory, and staging area for paddling and hiking trips along the Sacramento River delta. The new visitor center opened October 13, 2012. A 30-by-50 model of the delta is also located at the park, as well as restored wetlands.〔(Cuff, Dennis. ''Contra Costa Times''. "New Delta visitor center in Oakley: Doorway to California's inland sea." October 8, 2012. )〕 The center includes a interactive map of the Sacramento-San Joaquin delta area that shows visitors how water flows through the region. ==Park name== The park is named for a break in the levee system that flooded an asparagus farm between the San Joaquin River and Dutch Slough in 1928.〔(Kusic, Galen. ''River News-Herald and Isleton Journal''. "Big Break Regional Shoreline provides glimpse into the Delta." May 29, 2013. Retrieved July 7, 2013. )〕 The break formed a small bay along the river, near the area where fresh water from the river mixes with salt water from San Francisco Bay.〔(East Bay Regional Park District - Big Break Regional Shoreline.
