This is a great campground on Santa Cruz Island and depending on your camp site is between 0.2-0.6 miles from the boat dock. You should pack like you are backpacking as you need to transport all of your gear from the docks to your site and you don't want to spend half your trip walking back and forth. Many of the sites have eucalyptus trees for shade and the campground's location in a valley helps protect it from the high winds that are typical on the channel islands. The endemic island foxes frequent this campground and are very cute and fun to watch run through the camp. From the campground there are beautiful hikes along the cliffs along the ocean, ocean kayaking, and the park rangers usually have a short movie or program on weekend nights.
