Our last outing with Beth was a trip to Channel Islands National Park. Comprised of five islands that were isolated for thousands of years, the park features unique animals and plants that are found nowhere else on earth.
Tim and I had previously visited Santa Cruz Island, so we picked Anacapa Island for our destination today. We boarded our boat in Ventura and enjoyed watching the dolphins that followed us the entire way to Anacapa and back.
Anacapa is a volcanic island with huge sea cliffs, caves, and natural bridges. Arch Rock, a 40-foot natural bridge, is a symbol of both Anacapa and Channel Islands National Park. I took way too many photos of the island’s natural features.

We checked out the lighthouse and the other buildings that supported its use and wandered around the trails on the island. We especially enjoyed checking out the plentiful seabirds and admired all the vivid yellow and red flowers that covered the landscape.
