Uncover Ventura County’s Hidden Beach Gems That Even Locals Can’t Resist—Your Ultimate Coastal Adventure Starts Here!
Tip: The Discovery Tour offers the perfect amount of time if you want to fit in other activities like hiking or snorkeling and still make the afternoon ferry. Even though we love to kayak, we are glad we split our time so we could also explore the park by land.
Snorkeling the Channel Islands
The Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary is known to have some of the country’s best snorkeling and diving. With cold currents traveling down from the North Pacific and warm currents moving up from the tropics, there is an upwelling of nutrients that make the waters’ biodiversity off the charts! Channel Islands Adventure Company runs snorkel trips (some you can combo with kayaking for a full-day adventure) and the responses we heard from snorkelers made us jealous! Swimming through the kelp forests and sea caves, they saw girabaldi, lion sharks, and playful baby sea lions!
