Tips from the community

Santa Cruz Island is home to the world’s largest sea cave: Painted Cave. If you’re up for true adventure, kayak about two-thirds of the way into the cave, and as the walls start to narrow, you’ll find yourself in a huge, pitch-black chamber with sea lions yawning and barking around you.
