- One-day trips, multi-day boat trips and overnight camping trips (minimum stay is generally 3 days—Friday to Sunday).
- Be prepared for adverse weather. Wind speed on the island averages about 20 mile per hour.
- Backcountry beach camping is available during certain times of year.
- Hiking options are unlimited with over 54,000 acres of rugged peaks, magnificent canyons, and beautiful beaches.
- Due to high incidence of strong winds, swimming, snorkeling, diving, and kayaking are limited and recommended for the experienced visitor only.
- Despite the wind, Santa Rosa offers exceptional beach-walking on white sand beaches. Access to one of the best beaches, Water Canyon Beach, is just over a mile from the pier in Bechers Bay and just down canyon from the campground.
