Van Sickle Island is an approximately 10,000-acre (4,000 ha) island in Suisun Bay, California. It is part of Solano County, and administered by Reclamation District 1607.[2] Its coordinates are 38°04′00″N121°54′04″W / 38.06667°N 121.90111°W / 38.06667; -121.90111 (Van Sickle Island)[1], and in 1981 the United States Geological Survey recorded its elevation as 0 ft (0 m).[1] The island's land is divided into 22 privately-owned parcels, used primarily for duck clubs and private residences.[3] A railroad bridge constructed in 1913 once connected it to Montezuma and Chipps Island, from which a ferry connected to Mallard Island and Pittsburg. The rail service was discontinued and the bridges no longer exist;[4][5][6][7] currently, the island is accessible by water, as well as by road on bridges from Hammond Island and Wheeler Island.[6][7]
