Eckley is an area in Contra Costa County, California, which served as a train-ferry landing for crossings of the Carquinez Strait prior to the opening of the Benicia-Martinez railroad bridge.

It lay on the Southern Pacific Railroad 4.5 miles (7.2 km) northwest of Martinez,[2] at an elevation of 10 feet (3 m).

The place's name is in honor of Commodore John L. Eckley who established a yacht harbor at the cove here.
