Channel Islands National Park
Island Programs
 

While park staff does not offer any curriculum-based educational programs on the islands, guided hikes for the general public are offered throughout the year. Also, every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday afternoon from Memorial Day through Labor Day, rangers conduct a live underwater video program from Anacapa Island. Visit Underwater Video Program for more information. No reservations (except boat transportation reservations) are required for these guided tours.

In addition, Island Packers, an official park concessionaire, offer a variety of student programs, from half-day whale watching to full-day Anacapa and Santa Cruz Island trips. For more information visit Island Packers or call (805) 642-1393.

Island deer mouse  

Did You Know?
The endemic island deer mouse is the only native terrestrial mammal common to all the Channel Islands and is larger than mainland deer mice. Densities of deer mice on the islands can be greater than anywhere else in the world. This makes you happy if you're an owl, but not if you're a camper.
