One of the best experiences I have been fortunate enough to have! This is the perfect place for a camping trip to get away from it all and take in some beautiful nature. When we went, there were 5 people in total on the island. For the longer hikes you do have to go with the ranger, but instead of this being limiting, it makes it so you have someone with great knowledge with you as you explore the island! Make sure you pack lightly to carry your stuff to camp and I recommend sunglasses because the wind can get pretty intense. We were lucky enough to have Kate as our ranger and seeing point Bennet was a once in a lifetime experience!

We were so lucky to have the perfect weather for our visit, warm and no winds. Sabina was an excellent guide to the island. She was very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna as well as the island history and the animals that live there. While it wasn't the "season" for the pinnipeds, we did see quite a few of them, even right on the beach were where loaded onto the skiffs. Since there are only 9 campsites we were able to get to know our fellow campers and had a wonderful time with them. Don't miss the beautiful sunrises and sunsets!

This stunning, most remote of the Channel Islands has a host of experiences and adventures in store for the intrepid adventurer. I went with three good friends for 8 days and loved every moment. Having good camping skills is critical, and be ready for the "big haul" on day one - multiple trips across the beach, up the steps / trail to the campground with your gear and water.
Take advantage of hiking opportunities with NPS docents and explore every possible corner of the island. Bring a good camera and your nature journal if you are so inclined! And binoculars! A morning in the NPS building reading books is a good way to pass a foggy / drizzly period.
Be ready for cool temps but don't be afraid of being out there - the longer you stay outside, the more you will see! The birds, the marine mammals, the plant life, the ocean...
