A boat dock is the actual structure of wood or metal where you're parking the boat and putting boat dock accessories. Mooring at a boat dock means securing it parallel to the dock and leaving three sides open to the water.
A wide range of recreational activities take place on the lake. During the summer months the lake is mottled with multicoloured canoes, kayaks, stand up paddleboards, and sail boats. Safety boats, power boats (except electric powered boats) and sailing craft above 5.8m are not permitted to use the lake.
Quick little disclaimer here, the city of Oakland does not recommend swimming in Lake Merritt. Its relatively small surface area and urban surroundings make it more polluted than other parts of the bay and accidentally ingesting the lake water could be dangerous.
