2018 Map of Anacapa Island OE E

About this map

The Pacific Ocean dominates this maritime survey, illustrating the isolated position of the easternmost reach of the Channel Islands chain in 2018. A small, rocky outcropping within the Channel Islands National Park is the only terrestrial feature shown, situated in the southwest corner of the sheet. The map serves primarily as a nautical reference for the waters surrounding these protected islands, where steep bathymetric contours drop away from the shoreline into the open sea. This perspective emphasizes the importance of the park's marine boundaries and the maritime environment that separates the islands from the California mainland of Ventura County.
