Guided Tour Getting There More Info

Santa Barbara Island is the smallest island in the National Park. This rugged island is the perfect size for a one-day circumnavigation. Weather permitting, we will paddle around this infrequently visited isle encountering caves, arches, profuse wildlife, and solitude. This 6 mile paddle takes you entirely around the island. This trip only runs during the summer months.

Santa Barbara Island offers a very intimate view of elephant seals and other pinipeds. Bring along your waterproof camera and take some amazing pictures of these fabulous animals on secluded beaches. We must maintain a 100 yard distance from all wildlife at all National Park Locations.
