Discovering Channel Islands National Park: A 5-Day Voyage
Discover a hidden wild side of a well-known region. Just off the coast of California, one of the lesser-known U.S. national parks beckons, with dramatic sea cliffs, grassy headlands, and rocky islets. Dayboats can take you to individual islands to hike or camp, but our small ships provide a mobile base camp from which to actively explore the full natural splendor of this unique archipelago.
Highlights
Discover the islands by walking miles of trails, paddling crystal-clear waters by kayak or stand-up paddleboard, or exploring by Zodiac
Hike in a Torrey pine grove, one of only two on Earth, and enjoy a picnic lunch with sweeping views of the natural harbor
See endemic species found only in the islands, such as the Channel Island fox, island scrub jay and coastal sage scrub
Take in the colorful history and architecture of Avalon, a haven for movie stars in Hollywood’s golden era
Explore by Zodiac among vast kelp forests, or take an optional scuba dive (if certified)
