A trip to Anacapa Island can be arranged on Island Packers' The Vanguard.   An overcast day ensures a calm eleven mile crossing from the Channel Islands Harbor in Oxnard.

This is about as close to the lighthouse as one is allowed to be as the sound of the foghorn can cause hearing damage.   Sea caves of Anacapa Island and the turquoise water make this a beautiful place.

Approaching Anacapa, you take in this view of amazing Arch Rock.

Slowly and carefully the boat captain backs the Vanguard to the landing.

This is Cathedral Cove in the fog.   Below is a spot where there may be kayaks, sea lions and divers exploring the sunken wrecks.

Also in Ventura County is Prisbrey's Bottle Village.
