2022 Map of Anacapa Island OE E

About this map

East Anacapa Island anchors the southwestern corner of this survey, representing a remote outpost within the Channel Islands National Park. This volcanic islet, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, is characterized by its dramatic maritime boundaries and protected coastal features. Notable landmarks include the distinctive Arch Rock and the sheltered waters of Cathedral Cove. The presence of the Overlook Trl suggests a landscape managed for conservation and limited human access, providing a rare look at the island's topography in the early 2020s. Most of the map area is dedicated to the open sea, emphasizing the isolation of this part of Ventura County and the critical role of these islands as ecological preserves.
