Picnicking

Picnic tables are available for day use on all islands except San Miguel. If weather permits, many visitors enjoy picnicking on the islands’ beaches. Visitors must bring their own food and water (potable water is available at the Scorpion Canyon Campground on Santa Cruz Island and the Water Canyon Campground on Santa Rosa Island). Public pit toilets are available on all islands.

Due to scavenging animals (including birds), please secure food and trash at all times.
