Bring your wetsuit and dry suit, this is blue water sailing, with Anacapa Island only 11 miles away. Great places to snak with in walking distance to the launch point beach is right next to the Coast Guard Station, with a direct shot out of the harbor.

Greate place, best to call Channel Island Harbor prior to going in winter monthes due to Harbor dredging (they use this beach for the equipment)
