Welcome to Flotilla 57
Our Flotilla serves central Contra Costa County and
the Western Delta regions of the East Bay in Northern California. We are
an all-volunteer civilian organization that assists and extends the U.S.
Coast Guard (USCG) in all of its missions except law enforcement.
Members of our Flotilla help educate the public through our Boating Safety classes, Vessel Safety Checks,
and information booths at boat shows and local
festivals, as well as many other important duties directly for and
under the control of the USCG, such as recreational
area and regatta patrols to maintain safety for all boaters, and to
assist boaters in trouble.
Our Flotilla meets on the fourth Thursday of every month
in Pleasant Hill, California,
and members generally hail from central Contra
Costa County.
The public is invited to attend and new members are always welcomed.
