Join us on our spring outing to Santa Cruz Island. We will be going on an Island Packers boat out of Ventura Harbor. We are planning to take the 8 AM boat. You will need to be at Island Packers 45 minutes early to check in. Please book your tickets as early as possible. Boats can fill up quickly. Reminder, this is a full-day outing. Make sure to book the return trip for the same day.

Information about the hiking trails and the island can be found on the Channel Islands National Park Service Website. You should dress in layers, it could be cool in the morning, and on the way to the Island. But the temperatures will rise during the day if it's sunny. Also, you will need to bring water and lunch, since there are no facilities on the island.

Based on the trails we select, hiking can be light to moderate. There is little chance we will select challenging hikes.
