California holds the second largest gambling & casino list in America. The state is second only to Nevada, largely due to the number of casinos in Las Vegas.

California Casinos differ from Vegas style casinos in part because they are all Native American Indian Casinos. They have all of your favorite casino games like Roulette, Blackjack, Slots, Poker and more.

California Casinos


Located on the west coast of the United States, the state of California is by far the most populous state in the country. On Californias Native American owned lands there are a number of casinos operating within their legal jurisdictions. Many California casinos are located in out-of-the-way places, because they are located on Native American land. Because of this, it is advisable to call ahead and get specific directions to the casinos before you travel to save you time.

Most California casinos are open 24 hours a day. California casinos are allowed by law to offer electronic gaming machines, blackjack, and other card games. Craps and roulette are unfortunately not permitted, but some California casinos have modified these games to be played with cards rather than dice or roulette wheels. Video poker, slots and video keno are the most popular electronic gaming machines you'll find in California casinos. Card games frequently played in California casinos include baccarat, blackjack, poker (including Caribbean stud, pai gow and three-card poker), Spanish 21, and Let it Ride. Bingo, casino war and OTB (off track betting) are options provided for gamblers and casual players by the casinos in California.

In addition to traditional gambling games, many California casinos offer some exciting amenities, such as full 18-hole golf courses and wedding chapels. California casinos are as varied and colorful as the residents of California themselves. Many of them are full of surprises!

Overnight RV parking for the traveling gambler is permitted by many California casinos, so if you're planning a California casino trip you can make quite a few stops and stay a while. Gamblers in California must be a minimum of 18 years old. If however, alcohol is served there, the age is 21 and beyond.
