    Tips

    January 28, 2024

    This is the main dock on and off of Santa Cruz Island. The trip from the mainland takes about an hour, and the boats are operated between 5-7 days a week. From the boat, visitors need to climb up a steel ladder in order to access the dock. When the dock is closed, a smaller boat will shuttle visitors directly to the beach. Nearby there are picnic areas, public restrooms, trailheads, and campgrounds. There is no form of transportation on the island, so it is by foot only.
