While park staff does not offer any curriculum-based educational programs on the islands, guided hikes for the general public are offered throughout the year. Also, during the summer rangers conduct Channel Islands Live Dives from Anacapa Island. Visit Channel Islands Live: Live Dive for more information. No reservations (except boat transportation reservations) are required for these guided tours.
In addition, Island Packers, an official park concessionaire, offer a variety of student programs, from half-day whale watching to full-day Anacapa and Santa Cruz Island trips. For more information visit Island Packers or call (805) 642-1393.
