Anacapa Island in Channel Islands National Park

Channel Islands National Park encompasses Anacapa Island, where this remote campground requires ferry access followed by a hike to reach individual sites. The National Park Service maintains basic amenities including drinking water, restrooms, picnic tables, and trash service across the tent pads. Campers must carry all gear from the ferry landing to their designated spots.
