- Five wild islands offshore — 'the Galápagos of North America'

- Islanders here bred true miniature foxes found nowhere else, and Santa Rosa yielded 13,000-year-old Arlington Man, among the oldest human remains in the Americas. Access is by Island Packers boat from Ventura; no services once you land, and the kayaking through Santa Cruz's sea caves is world class.
