Belvedere Lagoon is an artificial lagoon in the Marin County, California, community of Belvedere on San Francisco Bay. Narrow strips of land separate it from Richardson Bay (to the northwest) and Raccoon Strait.

The lagoon is owned and maintained by the Belvedere Lagoon Property Owners' Association. The lagoon is not accessible by boat from San Francisco Bay, and no public access is provided. Until somewhat late in the 20th century houseboats were present in Belvedere Lagoon.[1]
