Channel Islands National Park is the largest chain of islands off the coast of California. Encompassing 5 separate islands, this park offers kayaking through caves, wildlife viewing, white sand beaches, and mountain hiking. One day on Anacapa Island in Channel Islands National Park: 🛥 Board @islandpackers from @channelislandsharbor in Oxnard, California and enjoy the 1 hour & 15 minute ferry ride to the island (be sure to stand upfront for amazing view of the dolphins catching a ride alongside the boat) 🥾 Hike the island stopping at Inspiration Point and Cathedral Cove for extraordinary views of million year old rock formations and the surrounding Pacific Ocean 🦭 Be sure to make a stop at Pinniped Point on the island to overlook sealions sunbathing (on a good day, you will hear them all day long) ⛰ Visit & learn about Anacapa Island Light Station - the historic lighthouse was built in 1932 and has been in service since to guide ships through the Santa Barbara Channel Is Channel Islands National Park on your list to visit? #channelislands #channelislandsnationalpark #nationalpark #hiking #nationalparkservice #california #californiacoast #anacapaisland

“For six months, I served as the NPS site construction manager during the final phase of the Anacapa wharf rehabilitation project. Due to limited facilities, typically there were just 5 - 10 personnel on the island including construction workers and park staff. After the workday wrapped up, I enjoyed the solitude of exploring Anacapa on my own. The sunset views from Inspiration Point were majestic. This time lapse was taken in late January. Two hours compressed into 25 seconds. As the sun went down the sea lions were barking in the distance, and hundreds of brown pelicans soared by riding the thermals to their rookeries for the night. Capped off at the end with Venus dropping by for a cameo. Walking back in the dark, the lights shining from the mainland to the northeast felt a lot further than the 12 miles that separated us.” You can share your Channel Islands National Park story with us and get featured by messaging us or tagging us in your photos.

The views of the horizon in any direction, is worth all the stars. * The sunrise and sunset are unbelievable. * The pebble beach between the East and Middle Anacapa Island and water flowing across it is a sight to witness. Go see it, to experience it!

Hands down the best view at Channel Islands. The hike to this point does practically effortless. It's on Anacapa Island which is just one square mile. Even if you get on a ferry that only leaves you 2-3 hours in Anacapa Island it's worthwhile to go just to see this Vista Point. I spent a good 4,5 hours at this Vista Point when I was on...

Wonderful view. This is an especially great experience for bird lovers - particularly seagull lovers - as you must pass through thousands of them to reach this point. They are not particularly happy to share their island...
