Instead
of spending the day waiting in line or fighting traffic while
in Southern California, while away the hours exploring a beautiful
secluded Island off the coast of Santa Barbara. In recognition
of the significant ecological habit and the rare beauty of
the Channel Islands, President Carter designated these Islands
a National
Park and the waters around them a Marine
Sanctuary. This area of the world has not been geared
to mass tourism and the payoff to you is unspoiled beaches
teeming wildlife to observe, secluded lagoons to explore,
and beautiful endemic plants and animals to photograph.
Truth Aquatics is "an official concessionaire to the
Channel Islands National Park"
which grants us the rights to land passengers on the islands
for hiking or camping on both single
and multiple day excursions.
We
are extremely excited to be able to offer this unique opportunity.
The best way to explore the islands is on a
2 or 3 day excursion where all meals, snacks and beverages
are included in the price. Enjoy hiking after a breakfast
cooked to order. While on the Island a naturalist will guide
you on trails through canyons, grassy knolls, and white sandy
beaches that numb your senses. Kayak, swim, snorkel, or scuba
dive in the afternoon, then settle in for barbeque steak dinner
and take in a sunset only found at the Channel Islands. Wake
up the next morning and start all over again at a different
Island.
Corporations,
Travel agencies, and individual groups are welcomed. These trips
are the perfect get-a-way for those who are seeking solitude
and and a location to provide a company team building event.
Island
fox, birds, pinnapeds (seals and sea lions), deer, and elk are
all just a sample of what is available for viewing. Unlike going
ashore at Catalina, setting foot on these islands is what our
coastline must have been like a century ago. We hope to see
you on board for one of these exciting trips or you can make
it part of your charter.
To review available dates see the Truth
Hiking Calendar. Make sure to spend some time in Santa
Barbara before or after your trip to the Channel Islands.
