Pacheco Creek (Contra Costa County)

Pacheco Creek is a 3.4-mile-long (5.5 km) waterway in central Contra Costa County, California, United States. It empties into Suisun Bay. It is formed by the intersection of Walnut Creek, Grayson Creek and Pine Creek.

The creek has a run of chinook salmon and steelhead trout after periods of rain in the winter and fall.

Salvio Pacheco, a Californio ranchero and military officer, was granted the Rancho Monte del Diablo in 1834, and settled there in 1844. The creek is named for him.
